Men can't verbalise their need and affection for another man -- not even to save a deep bond

A man may feel intensely for another man, and may need him more than anything else in life, but if he's leaving him, he will not go and hold his hand or plead or hug him to stop him... He might be agony, but he'll just stand there saying indirect things in order to let the other man know that he wants him not to go. Sometimes, this is just not enough.

But a man may feel less intensely for a woman, but if she's leaving, he will go to her hold her in his arms and kiss her and ask her to stay, tell her that he'll die without her, that he can't live without her, he will lie down on her feet, cry, weep, explain, say he'll change, and say 'sorry'.

He'll never say 'sorry' to a man, even if he feel intensely sorry... That is how the mechanisms to control men's behaviour have made men -- this is what their oppression is about, breaking them from another man, making him unable to give him his affection, making him unable to take his affection, while they both have love in their hearts,... just as the society further builds up the pressure by repeating it on a mike again and again that it is not natural for men to feel affection for other men, to care for other him as he would for a woman.

And the man, who cannot say anything to his male lover who means the earth to him, ... How can he open his mouth to challenge the society and its lies... He just keeps quiets, throws the intense emotions of loss and pain deep inside him in order to forget them, and with the storm brewing inside him, he puts on a composed facade and quietly joins the forces that cripple his power to bond with another man. He adds to the forces that enslave and oppress him. For he knows no other way to live.
