No Comfort at All

Our lives as males are incredibly awful. Just incredibly awful. There’s no comfort in our lives at all, and we’re not allowed to complain about it. We don’t even talk to each other. “I hear you broke your leg in two* on the job yesterday.” “Yeah, a little bit of a bump, all right.” We’re trained to not even tell each other.

* “In two” means into two pieces.
