Point is, many of us men don't/didn't even recognize we are/were being emasculated...we have too few examples and mirrors to compare to. We know something was/is wrong, but we cannot identify it, so it sets poorly, nagging in the back of the mind.
So we get frustrated, not being able to identify what that feeling is and what is causing it, and therefore figuring out how to fix it... and of course it's emotional stuff which is not our forte....and so resentment starts creeping in...dang...yet another emotion...yuck!!
And so the cycle begins.
