Lovely ladies etc - what about the men?

It hasn't really been a mixed site though. There are very few men on here. It is a predominantly female site.

I don’t really care either way but maybe if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it ?

Well I d say at least 80% of the chats on here figure subjects men would not want to be anywhere near…. hysterectomies, menopause, pee pads etc etc etc missing the grandkids, falling out with children, moaning about husbands not cooking or washing up
They might enjoy some of the politics and news threads and it would be welcome to have some male views
The logo makes it look totally geared to females not to both grandparents so doubt you ll ever tempt many lads to come on here, if it was the opposite with a heading showing three generations of men and most of the threads were about footy, rugby and motor racing there’s no way I d venture on it.

I’ve only noticed about three or four men on GN and two of them, Mick and infoman don’t say much, Mick talks about the weather and infoman deals in facts as his name suggests.

Who’s discouraging them?
I asked what you’d do to encourage them.

It bothers me when people assume they know what other people might be doing based on a smidgeon of evidence.

Crikey I am dense, I hadn't even thought about the fact that info man was .. a man

You can’t always be sure these days Galaxy 🤪

This is true. That's what happens when words don't have meanings it confuses me

Well, we could talk about prostrates, mid-life crises, wives not cooking or washing up and men missing out grandchildren etc etc.

But I don't want to talk about pee pads. The adverts annoy DH and me!!

To be fair, you never know. I might have a girlie username but I could be a 6' 4" man with beard and muscles 🧔

To be equally fair Allira, who knows if we might not all be men living our lives as women and blaming our polycystic nonexistent ovaries for our facial hair. 🧔‍♀️

Because of usernames some are clearly women but some who I thought where men turned out to be woman oops. So you don't always know what sex a person is . But does it really matter . I welcome a man's prospective on matters. But as we all now men do not chatter like women do and men don't find it easy to open up about what's bothering them . General matters they are fine had great advice from granddad's shed from men and women . But try getting a man to open up about health or emotional issues you need a can opener.

On some bereavement threads men have been on as they are lost . And those who go on those threads try to help but the men never stay long . They think they have to be brave or as I call it the silver backed gorilla attitude . My husband was like that. He only wanted to talk to me .

I wish there where more men on GN as I like talking to men . Lucky some other groups I am on have interaction with men who aren't afraid talk about emotional and health matters and we all help eachother.
