    Oh your question was so stupid I thought it was rhetorical.

    The answer to your specific question is you can stop worrying now about pains in your balls for no reason. It's the pains in your balls with reasons that you need to worry about.

    You know, the victimhood from some (which is something many feminists get rightly slated for) - what does this achieve? Wouldn't it make more sense to use that energy to help create awareness? Rather than complaining about others not doing anything...

    Just pointing out how it is treated to other days.

    I know all about the issues facing men having needed such services and coming back from nearly doing something stupid this time last year when feeling low and at my wits end

    TBH I'm a fatalist. I've become quite skeptical regarding modern medicine. So, unless I get a very obvious sign of something wrong, I tend to stay, as far away as possible, from the medical profession.

    That's a great idea and I bet you'll stick to that, while you're healthy. In the meantime, men should use medical services if and when they need them. Dr. klaz can do what he likes. Men should follow best practice and get the attention they need.

    It's the answer to your question. Question was dumb. What can you hope for in the answer?

    Stop being a muppet. I was asked my opinion and I answered it. I didn't make any suggestions for others to do likewise.

    It's good to see International Men's Day being highlighted here...

    We have just as much right to be represented as women do!

    Well OK, let's highlight the contribution that men have made to society...

    Technological Innovation
    Engineering both Civil and Mechanical
    Cookery, Art and Design
    Defence of Freedom (ordinary soldiers of WW2 etc)
    Fire and Rescue

    ...to name just a few!

    Anne, they are very much trained. Talking to someone can be vital. Don’t dismiss it.

    I spent the day with my family. Great fun with my nephew telling me all about his rugby training- he scores lots of tries but doesn’t get pocket to be captain I told him I’d rather score tries than be captain! I used to be a sub!!!

    That's exactly what I said. If I thought you were advising other people to follow your zany example, I'd have said so. As long as your healthy I think it'll be a grand protest against... whatever you're protesting. I'd bet it will go out the window once you get sick, and I hope you get proper medical help if you ever need it.

    Dr. Klaz can do as he pleases with his own health as long as he's not discouraging men to seek medical help in accordance with best practice.

    If you say so. Considering your question came after a statement that there can't be an IMD, in a thread about IMD, it didn't occur to me that you were trying to make any good points.

    One interesting project is their input towards combatting the problem of invasive plant species at Killarney National Park - The Rhododendron which is threatening the park's ecosystems.
