    If somebody says to me "Man up", they're basically saying the way I'm acting doesn't conform with the recognised normal behaviour for a man.

    As a #HighlySensitivePerson #HSP I often don't conform with expectations as a man.

    I also feel hurt by the term #ManUp, and believe many men don't naturally conform, but are molded by society to do so, such that they don't feel out of place.

    This is particularly the case for teenagers and also gangs.
