Man Facts
This is where lay the facts out there and introduce you to some of the most common issues that men face. If you relates to any of these, you're not alone because we were told these stuff are pretty common amongst men.
Having said that, we're not professionals, so take these advice with a pinch of salt and make sure you find out more info about the issue. This is just the beginning of your discovery.
Stress
Stress can be a real son-of-a-b*tch and a real sneaky little bugger although its much needed to keep us motivated. It’s a part of everyday life. Stress becomes a problem when it starts affecting your social and personal life.
Sexuality
Sexuality is by no means limited to being straight, or even being same-sex attracted. There are a whole range of different sexual identities people can have - whoever they may be attracted to and whether or not they want to do anything about that attraction.
Peer pressure
Peer pressure is a real son-of-a-b*tch responsible for a collection of intolerable evils. Having said that, it can also be a positive influence: like if your mates peer-pressure you to finish that assignment you’ve been putting off.
Trying to impress a crush
Impressing a crush has always been a cause for confusion. Dumbstruck by lust and high on hormones, we partake in all sorts of ridiculous activities to try and garner some attention from a potential partner.
Feeling crap
Black clouds, black dog, black vortex, black energy, black fckin everything! Sometimes, you can’t even describe what feeling crap really feels like - its just a fcked up feeling. And there are a lot of reasons why you might be feeling crap. The important thing to do is try to work out why you’re feeling crap.
Career pressure
So, you’re about to finish school or uni and everyone’s asking you what’s next? Or, you’re already stretched to the limits at work and you receive another bloody email from your supervisor with more things to do. As if we don’t already have enough pressures in our lives these days, we also have to deal with the pressure to get on some kind of career path.
Break up
Firstly, let’s get this straight. Breaking up may be nobody's fault. It may just happen. And yes, it can be a pretty fcked up time. It’s hard, but sometimes people just need to move apart and go on with life.
Body Image
Biggest biceps, bigger chest, six-pack abs, larger penis, taller, more muscular, thinner... How much does body image affect you?
Binge Drinking
"Binge Drinking" is nothing new. People have been getting wasted since humanity discovered alcohol can serve that purpose. So what is and isn't 'binge drinking' doesn't really matter - what matters is what YOU think.
Anxiety
We all need to feel anxious sometimes. Anxiety is our body’s way of telling us we need to be on the alert. That’s why the heart starts pumping faster, the adrenaline starts flowing and we start breathing a bit more quickly.
Anger
Everyone gets angry. So if you do as well, that’s good news - you’re human. But if your anger just makes you want to punch the crap out of someone or if you feel angry all the time and you don’t know how to react to that, you can probably do something to take some of that stress out of your life.
Loss & Grief
When you are going through grief it can feel like you’re powerless. And there’s nothing more frustrating than having a problem you can’t work at and fix. Like when you didn’t get to say goodbye. When you didn’t get to tell someone what you really thought of them, or sort out that stupid issue you’d been at heads over for ages.
