True, however, women’s value is often reduced to her attractiveness,
whereas men’s value is tied with what he does. For example, Barbie is a
fashion doll. He-Man is a protagonist with tons of adventures, and even
the dolls are considered “action figures” because they DO something. One
is passive, one is dynamic. Also, one’s strength is their value to
others. The other’s strength is actual strength. Both are designed for
the male gaze.

<blockquote>
Try to imagine that depression is like being in a dark tunnel. The
person with depression can’t see a thing, because everything is
surrounded by darkness. Every sound is amplified, every fear is
magnified. All they want to do is get out of the tunnel, but they can’t
see where to go, they don’t know what to do. Your natural reaction is to
lead them out of this dark tunnel, back to the light.</blockquote>
<br />
<blockquote>

</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many men are “fixers,” and my husband is. He is gradually learning
that he can’t “fix” my depression, it’s an ongoing process that will
never have a strictly linear progression.</div>
