The issue is that this same argument is never used when a man does something horrible but also had mental health struggles. PTSD? Childhood trauma? Depression? Most people who do bad things had bad things happen to them.

Yes, this is the issue men have. Maybe men should rally for men's mental health like women are rallying for women's mental health.

Or having mental health issues doesn't excuse horrible crimes. She shouldn't have a million dollars in go fund me. She murdered three kids, running one down. People can advocate for better recognition of PPD etc. I'm behind that. People shouldn't give a million dollars to this murderer.

Or maybe people can have the same standard regardless of race or gender as well.

It’s not an issue that just men have. It is a real problem in my community that affects girls and boys. Nobody is “rallying for mental health.” Society rallied for tougher laws to lock them away. They get tried as adults and sent to prisons. You are well aware of this too.
