    Without giving away my age (But I do predates smart phones and home internet use), I’ve found men are perfectly fine with venting assuming the setting is right. Small group? Beer? Sure. Something embarrassing happens in the moment? Not so much.

    Its everyone but your male friends who will give you shit for showing any emotion but anger.

      I can confirm this despite likely being younger. Small group and sufficient alcohol helps.

        Nope, I meant everyone.

        Edit: Although I guess a more accurate term would be, “Every demographic” since not everyone of any demographic will be that way.
