The misuse of therapy terms is going to be so dangerous. We see it already in the news recently with a celeb. And people will have a hard time seeing

YES! I said my ex emotionally catfished me cause he spoke so emotionally mature at the start and then didn’t show up emotionally in the relationship

So if I can understand emotion but not feel those things at the time of my understanding, I’m weaponizing emotion? Damn can’t win for trying I guess

This! It’s scaring me that therapy is giving them more tools to manipulate instead of actually healing. 🥲

I think the backfire of therapy is not exclusive for men. Every human can use it no manipulate, having the language but not putting the action

I feel the same way about antiracism… just because language becomes normalized doesn’t mean the concepts are understood or embodied.

100%. We need more of this conversation. It’s so sad, because they aren’t feeling even when they want to.

This is when people start to misunderstand feeling/experiencing emotion with expressing emotion. I don’t have to express my emotions to feel them

does anyone ever speak on how some men are barely given space in childhood to be emotional to be safe, how our emotions are weaponized against us 1/2

I’m hoping the men who do this are just the bridge to men who do feel their emotions.

I don't believe my man feels emotions. not the soft ones. He understands anger & disrespect but not empathy & caring. He just fakes it. 8yrs lost.

Yes! This is so powerful and such a necessary conversation. The weaponization of therapeutic therapies and terms can give the abuser the “upper hand”

Almost every romantic relationship I've ever had has shown me that my feelings are unwelcome guests in our conversation. Her feelings are center stage

It’s so so dangerous that men are unwilling to do the work - willing to learn the basics and lingo but unwilling to feel

Great conversation. Leading with self awareness, empathy, and grace for ourselves and others will help.

As someone with a high level of EQ. But struggles to actually feel… why is it wrong/ or being termed weaponized? I don’t understand.

100%, my ex did this, it took so much individual therapy to realize couples therapy was just being used against me

We’re providing them another means to hurt and subjugate us. It’s more dangerous now because they understand it.

Same with feminism. They can use the right language to create the impression of allyship but still haven’t analyzed themselves enough to prevent harm

Misuse of therapy terms is a real thing. But, we often forget that there is a emoting difference btw sexes. Learn your partners language and then it

My theory is that many men are dissociating. I have CPTSD from beeing forced to be «strong» and not showing emotions as a child. Is that not what

This is why we need to emphasize humanistic approaches not structured approaches in therapy.

I went to therapy at 16 because I stopped being able to feel any emotions and was numb. A lot of men exist in this state as their baseline

it's because most of us are so numb and/or programed to feel and show nothing. we can understand emotions but the wall that's been built won't go down

🤚 Me - I have a hard time even describing what I'm feeling when experiencing different emotions. Like colorblindness but for emotions...

your lack of empathy about male conditions isn't surprising. Making men out to be well versed zombies is spot on from alot of women.

Ohh so only men can weaponize these terms? We got educated. And now you’re intimidated.

No the issue is women want men to respond to and process emotions how women do. Instead of doing it like men do.

I used to think intellectualizing and identifying my feelings about something was feeling them. Now I can do both, but understanding the diff is vital

It's almost as if using therapy as a litmus test of a person's morality is a bad idea.

People have to actually WANT to feel emotions and dismantle societal constructs (aka capitalism/imperialism) that reduce incentives to feel emotions
