Maybe I’m just slow, but I don’t get the gist of your remark. You taking a jab at men denying their sensitivity or at men being too sensitive? The two things are sometimes two sides of the same coin I guess.

I think they’re saying they have to hide sensitivity with some colorful imagery to describe being very sensitive

men denying their sensitivity

mostly this, but

men being too sensitive?

for too many men apparently any amount of sensitivity is too much

but from my experience, it's the guys who are most obsessed with how their manliness is perceived by the rest of the world who are the most sensitive of all. and they're also the most miserable

I read it a nut punch to thise who deny any sensitivity, as they are more sensitive than a wind vane.

🤦🏽‍♂️ ahem Weathervanes don't cry, they simply stand in the direction the wind blew. Those poor bastards that claim they don't "feel" couldn't stand it if everyone knew.

Weather vanes do cry when they haven't been oiled.

Same as toxic males, I hear. Always grease your good boy.
