Too often when talk of "men's trauma" comes up, it's when it's being used as an excuse to argue against services dealing with women's trauma, as in "OH NO THERE'S A WOMEN'S TRAUMA CENTER, THAT IS SEXIST BECAUSE THERE IS NO MEN'S TRAUMA CENTER SO THE CORRECT SOLUTION IS TO HAVE NO TRAUMA CENTER AT ALLLLLLL"

It's good to see that people who legitimately care about helping traumatized men (rather than just using this as a bullshit "MEN'S RIGHTS" bargaining chip) are making some progress.

I agree. If there were half as many donaters as "what about men" argument derails, there could have been a lot more progress, y'know.

This is a really good thing, and I'm happy to signal boost.
