What's something that sucks about being a man?

I was walking in the park and a little girl, about 4 years old, was crying her eyes out at
the path next to the playground. No adults around, just her, sobbing her little heart out.

All I wanted to do is go up, lower myself to her level, give her a little hug and ask where
her mommy and daddy were… but I couldn’t. Modern society says that a man on his own
near a park, talking to children is a threat.

So, I had to keep my distance until I’d got the attention of a female walking her dog.

Society is broken when a man feels he can’t even comfort a crying child.

I understand it. But it truly sucks.
