when ppl are discriminated against all the time they become extremely defensive and agressive towards things that are perceived as an attack. with this being said, june is pride month and and so ppl who see MMH get posted over pride can be triggering since MMH usually gets posted in a way to avoid pride month (if that makes sense?)
Yeah, this is spot on. It’s exactly what’s happening with the nuclear family month movement. Unlike men’s mental health month, the nuclear family month is directly and intentionally meant to overshadow and take a jab at pride month, although republican governors will deny that. Some people weaponize MMHM in that way but the month itself is not an attack.
100% seeing the nuclear family month is absolutely wild to me. it's so obvious it's meant to be anti pride and, like you said, ppl also weaponize MMHM which is really unfortunate to see bc i think MMHM is actually super super important, esp in a society that loves to shame men who talk about MH
