A bloke is annoyed saying they don’t have a special day, and got really annoyed when people told him they do. He feels victimised because he forgot being told last year.
Arthur Braynsel (56) has been spending most of the day looking for posts about International Women’s Day and adding comments like “What about International Men’s Day eh? Eh?”. He doesn’t actually care, but he likes to be offended.
He gets really annoyed when somebody tells him for the umpteenth that there is an International Men’s Day in November. Arthur must have been informed about this about thirty times today. He is enjoying being angry because it’s the only fun he gets.
A user on Mastodon has sent a heartfelt message to these men.
I’d like to wish the men who only seem to remember International Men’s day on International Women’s day, a very happy international men’s day that you definitely forgot about.o
Arthur is still angry. “Well what about special events for men like the women get eh? Why do they get special events and we don’t? It’s leftie favouritism that’s what it is.”
An organiser of events local to Arthur did reach out to him to see if he would like to get involved in an event in November. Arthur told him, “Fuck off you leftie twat”.
The occasion has been marked by various events across the country including Scottish Men’s Sheds Open Days, Mental Health Training Day in Brighton, Guernsey Mindfulness Walk and Male Survivors of Sexual Violence and Abuse Training.
