This post is strictly for guys, and we may just spill a few well-kept secrets, so be warned.

Okay, now that everyone else has left and only guys are here, feel free to kick back, relax, and crack open a cold one. We've got a post just for you. The subreddit r/TrollYChromosome is only for guys, and the motto is, "Quality Reddit dudes sharing quality Reddit wisdom."

You might find funny situations, laugh, relate, and in general get a grasp of what it's like to live in this world with chromosome Y. For it is not only women that have issues, men deal with double standards, societal pressures to be masculine and their own daily struggles.

Dear men. It is manly to read books. It is manly to wear cute clothes. It is manly to care for your kids. It is manly to relax sometimes. It is manly to do housework. It is manly to love yourself. It is manly to cry, to feel, to BE human. Allow yourself that, please. You have my permission to be human. And if you don’t want it to be manly, it doesn’t have to be. It can be a multitude of things because manliness doesn’t define you. YOU define you. That’s kind of your whole job.

    This is sad, but then the only compliments I ever get from men have been about what I look like, never anything of substance. Maybe we should all compliment each other more. But genuinely so it's meaningful.

    I’ve always lived under the philosophy of ‘if they don’t like the real you when you reveal it in meeting them, they wouldn’t like the real you when you reveal it after being friends for a while’. It’s worth just being yourself as and when you meet someone, rather than waste the energy on someone who eventually won’t like you.
