Eh even if you want to bring your own emotional problems into a discussion like this, probably a better way is to go along the lines of “I understand how you feel, I often feel that way too. I find [this method] to be very helpful when dealing with it.” bla bla, rather than turning it into a piss contest (or contunuing it if it started off like that).

Also I feel like this comic tries to speak in place of all men. I might be wrong but if indeed so, I don’t feel like that all the time. Sure I do feel like that sometimes but definitely not even every month. I got my other problems, I am not problem free, but this is not it. So if this man feels like that all the time, he should probably try to have an open hearted discussion about it with someone who can understand rather than get angry about it. And if the other person makes fun of him for that, maybe he should consider his ties with that person because there are definitely people who are more understanding.
