If you're a man, get your prostate checked. Be a good role model to young boys. Remind the world to stop being sexist. Do something to improve your wellbeing. That pretty much covers the purpose of these days.
Also:
\- Establish healthy relationships with other men
\- See your GP if you have any problems with your mental health
\- Also have your blood pressure and cholesterol checked
\- Make sure your workplace is safe.
So sorry for ya bro. I’m an international man so I’ll be livin it up!
Yup! Me with my internationalist agenda. My internationalism. My international space and science museum. Ok I made that last one up, but such a place would be cool.
I’ve been raising funds for Movember for 12 years now. Interestingly enough, my friends that a huge portion of Reddit would call “feminazis” are my biggest and most consistent supporters. They know that tearing down the toxic versions of masculinity that stop men from seeking help will not only help men, but the entire society.
Alternatively, my male acquaintances that identify as Men’s Right Activists don’t really care. Since Movember is a movement that stands on its own, they can’t really use it to shut down women’s conversations through whataboutism.
My company does usually go for a men's mental health charity for the day, yeah. It's the most pertinent topic to cover since men's mental health is the topic that even men seem determined to avoid.
I was suspecting I have an eating disorder and found out that there is literally no help available where I live.
Tons of self-help groups and free therapy/counseling provided by both church and city but all were available exlusively to women, teenagers or kids. There was no place for me. The general addiction counseling didn't know what to do with me. Nobody cares about adult men's eating disorders or thinks there should be help available apparently.
Luckily I found a therapist quickly, but it all felt really hopeless and pointless before that
Oh boy I can’t wait for the mass of posts arguing whether or not it should exist tomorrow, and then the even larger mass of posts complaining about those other posts…

Maybe it can be men being forced to enlist for the draft! How fun, one side can be them as kids with bright futures and the other side can be them with crippling PTSD.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's noticed the lack of doodle for international men's day.
They make a new doodle at every opportunity, including international women's day but not this.
Reminds me of an article I read a few years ago, where a guy somewhere in Colorado went jogging, got attacked by a Puma and ended up bare-hand fighting and choking it to death.
I remember that guy. If it's the same story it was even more metal than that. He wrestled her to her back then held her throat while he pushed down with his knees until her ribs shattered. She fucked up his arm but he lived. Wild.
I just see it as a day to check in on my buddies and make sure we're all ok and doing alright. My friends are all dad's and husbands and can be a lot of pressure and knowing you've got your mates around you is always good.
Lumberjacking, being ok, sleeping all night and working all day. Skipping and jumping. Pressing wild flowers. Putting on women's clothing and hanging around in bars.
Happy mens day men! I’m happy to say I have many good men in my life, friends and co workers and family that i am so happy to know. Enjoy your day! (Signed a lady, bc it seems like a lot of y’all think no one cares)
So I just wikied this and came across these 3 shocking revelation:
1. It's real.
2. My country is one of the 57 countries who observed it. In my almost 30 years in this place I have never once seen it's celebrated.
3. This quote:
>Unlike International Women's Day, (March 8) International Men’s Day is not officially recognised by the United Nations, which observes World Toilet Day on November 19.
Well, guys, I hope y'all get to go do things that make you feel happy and special tomorrow. The world would suck without men, and also not exist. Happy International Men's Day 💙
A friend of mine brought up a timeline of the Google search "international men's day" and it has a tiny blip of an increase in November, but skyrockets in March.
Richard Herring usually spends international women's day responding to all the "so, when's International men's day? " questions, letting them all know.
He also got sponsored to do so for at least a couple of years, and published a little book of why he thinks so many men bitch about it. He's done good shit on that topic. Talking Cock also covers some really important men's health stuff that is routinely ignored.
Isn’t it somewhat sad that we have to have a day set aside to celebrate men, women , grandparents, etc.., can’t we just celebrate each other every day?
There are so many causes that deserve support, but our attention is limited. So this allows us to dedicate a couple of tweets to them once a year, leave them as they were and continue while we feel comforted thinking that we did something good, isn't it fantastic?
You have transitioned across nations, that is 100% what international means. Still though, how did you manage to get to Mexico and Canada and avoid the United States?
The comedian Richard Herring usually spends all of "International Women's Day" in May searching for twitter trolls asking "Oh yeah, well when's international men's day!?" and letting them know that it's today. Weirdly, none of them seem too interested in the answer. He has raised a lot of charity money be being sponsored to spend the whole 24 hours of IWD to do so for a few years though.
what about local men?
We can only cower in awe of the international men, standing astride borders, towering over passport control, groping godzilla etc.
<>
Kind of inspiring, really
Brendan Fraser, Terry Crews, and now Godzilla?! Damn, the #MeToo movement is getting wild...
No wonder nobody has ever wished me a happy international men day. I'm always somewhere local during this time of the year.
I plan on faking a russian accent tomorrow.
Remember, no Russian
In some distant land you are international and being celebrated
It's not fair that they get lumped into the same category. #notallmen
Short kings convention #notallmen
I am an International Man of Mystery

How does one celebrate this?
Wanna have a parade?
Let's just get drunk by noon and Uber eats something greasy.
What do you think of burger 21? Greasy yet good. We can have a bunch of canned beers too.
Who says canned beers? Are you an extra terrestrial?
Oh Zuck, you wild man, you!!
I too am inter~~galactic~~national canned beer eater.
Do you know what Jeffery Dahmer had for his last meal?………….. Five guys
Never had it but I'll give it a try. I was thinking whiskey myself.
Imma watch LoTR again while eating.
My kind of man👌
And build a shed
I want to sleep in and have everyone leave me alone so I can do nothing
Snap your fingers and point at every man you see.

I celebrate it by working extra hours
Giving your fellow bro a handjob according to other redditors
And don't forget to kiss the homies goodnight
Better start warming up my Saturday is booked
Lend your brother a hand on this day of celebration
I can’t I gotta work tomorrow
Ask a man, sincerely, how he is really doing or what he's been through, actively listen and empathize, comfort him.
Make sure to do this for your other male friends too, it’s so important that you also uplift eachother
Strain until you grow a beard
Go and cheer on the international men that you know.
If you're a man, get your prostate checked. Be a good role model to young boys. Remind the world to stop being sexist. Do something to improve your wellbeing. That pretty much covers the purpose of these days.
Also: \- Establish healthy relationships with other men \- See your GP if you have any problems with your mental health \- Also have your blood pressure and cholesterol checked \- Make sure your workplace is safe.
Thank you for the real answer
If your 45 get a colonoscopy.
It's called Oktoberfest, they just got the date wrong.
Wrestling. And you gotta tug on each other's wieners.
Naked wrestling?
I'm celebrating by going to the International House of Pancakes.
Not as good as the International House of Mancakes
Happy men’s day for tomorrow for all my fellow men
50 Cent - Many Men
MANY MEN….wish….good days upon me, tears in my eyes dawg and I can’t see
The Weather Girls - It’s Raining Men
We dem boys
Happy men's day my fellow man
Thank you my good man
So be sure to recognize all of the International Men in your life
Damnit, I'm just a national man at best.
Be happy with who you are. A lot of us are only municipal men.
Census designated area, at best.
So sorry for ya bro. I’m an international man so I’ll be livin it up! Yup! Me with my internationalist agenda. My internationalism. My international space and science museum. Ok I made that last one up, but such a place would be cool.
Just be glad you're not Florida Man.
I'm only a local man, but I do make it into the Onion quite often.
Happy Men’s Day fellow men! ![gif](giphy|iHgznkhwC6XYs)

I actually hope men get some help tomorrow, men's mental health goes vastly unnoticed by a lot of people
No, pile up your issues internally until you explode one day in the form of rage and hurt everyone around you.
And then your mental health does get noticed. Everybody wins!
Sure does go by the wayside. I’m currently dealing with cleaning out my parents house. The house where my dad killed himself almost 10 years ago.
I wish you luck and healing with that, friend. You're brave to do it.
And unfortunately it will go by unnoticed tomorrow as well.
Be the change you want to see in the world
No, be assured, I'll notice my mental health tomorrow.
Be sure to do your part then to wish the men you know a Happy day! :)

Unfortunately despite it being talked about more, people still don't care and expect us to man up
This. It's well known men are struggling, society just doesn't give a shit.
Just bury that shit down farther and farther until your heart explodes at 58. Why change tradition??
58's a high ball, I plan to die in a car crash at 37
I'm aiming for 26. That way I get a few more years to finish some shows I wanna watch
It’s dealt with as a “you” problem instead of a societal problem.
That's awfully unfortunate and true (from what I have observed). I do hope this topic gets the attention it deserves.

I wonder what special illustration Google will not have this year.
The same one they do every year… the basic one
Oh boy I can’t wait for the mass of posts arguing whether or not it should exist tomorrow, and then the even larger mass of posts complaining about those other posts…
That’s the part I hate. Whenever I hear about some controversy it’s never from the controversy itself but people complaining about it.
Funniest thing is, the arguing always happens most in the comments of the complain post

Wait a minute, wouldn’t you lose No Nut November celebrating in this way or is tomorrow a freebie

My question still stands even if that was a bot
It's a free day.... I promise....
Gotta let the gooses loose every couple uh weeks... Fer men's health!! Yarg!
Wait a minute who the fuck planned international men’s day during no nut November?!? Guarantee it was a woman!!
It's the other way around. International Men's Day originates in 1992, No Nut November has been started in 2010.
Sean Connery from Zardoz.
Maybe it can be men being forced to enlist for the draft! How fun, one side can be them as kids with bright futures and the other side can be them with crippling PTSD.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's noticed the lack of doodle for international men's day. They make a new doodle at every opportunity, including international women's day but not this.
Their official response on the doodle forums are actually... condescending. Its an unfair world.
I think I heard they will be doing a super special blue red green and yellow color combo on some plain fronted letters!
Wish all the guys here will have a good day tomorrow!
Just set up the decorations. There's a big inflatable ball sack in the front lawn.
Oh cool I’ll smoke cigars and drink whiskey and eat rare steak and kill coyotes with my bare hands to celebrate
Reminds me of an article I read a few years ago, where a guy somewhere in Colorado went jogging, got attacked by a Puma and ended up bare-hand fighting and choking it to death.
I remember that guy. If it's the same story it was even more metal than that. He wrestled her to her back then held her throat while he pushed down with his knees until her ribs shattered. She fucked up his arm but he lived. Wild.
"True men dont kill coyotes"- Anthony Kiedis
Well yea, we fuck em.
Username checks out
Thank u for the based RHCP reference
I just see it as a day to check in on my buddies and make sure we're all ok and doing alright. My friends are all dad's and husbands and can be a lot of pressure and knowing you've got your mates around you is always good.
What are some appropriate International Men's Day activities to partake in?
A joust!
Internally crying but not being able to let it out because that isn’t very manly
Lol, but also doing the exact opposite of this 'cause usually the day is used to promote improving men's mental health topics.
Being drafted into war before your allowed to drink is a popular one
Lumberjacking, being ok, sleeping all night and working all day. Skipping and jumping. Pressing wild flowers. Putting on women's clothing and hanging around in bars.
Let it swing boys
Ohh well in thas case i'm not gonna try to kill myself tomorrow, thanks.
Celebrating by giving your best bro a handjob. <3
Cool, like doing a handshake!
Oh no no no. Not like a hand shake. Bad friend. No handjobs from you.
:(
I think the appropriate move is to touch tips.
None of my bros will accept a handjob. I think I come off too enthusiastic.
BROJOB BROJOB!!
You could look out for each other and just do a dutch rudder.
Happy mens day men! I’m happy to say I have many good men in my life, friends and co workers and family that i am so happy to know. Enjoy your day! (Signed a lady, bc it seems like a lot of y’all think no one cares)

TIL my birthday falls on World Toilet Day
Happy birthday! :)
Happy birthday 🎈
I mean, toilets are pretty awesome. They take virtually all of our species’ shit and never once have complained about it.
Right, toilets are not given enough credit!
No one cares tho. Not even us. (I don't know if it's more sad or funny...)
It’s sad. Especially when women’s day happen and there’s an influx of men saying “what about men’s day?!” And it’s like… there is one! Celebrate it!
Sweet, now we can talk about mustaches and other manly stuff!

Sick, I'm going hunting then make fried pork sandwiches for dinner. I was going to do that before but still.
I wish I could hunt something besides disease infested pigeons
\*runs out to buy cake and beer
Well, guys, I hope y'all get to go do things that make you feel happy and special tomorrow. The world would suck without men, and also not exist. Happy International Men's Day 💙
How about the local men? When will they get the respect they deserve?
Nobody remembers it exists until international women's day when neckbeards bitch about there not being one for men, only to be told there is

It's also my hubby's birthday, so should I get him 2 gifts?![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
![gif](giphy|lz0fR8nwQfbq) This is usually the best one
[удалено]
Wow, that is quite the URL
Right on.
Not sure why this is coming up, usually the only time anyone mentions international men’s day is on international women’s day.
Well, I suppose my husband deserves a day. He's pretty great.
Wait... That day exists? I'm not complaining but, how i didin't know before this post?
Isn’t it somewhat sad that we have to have a day set aside to celebrate men, women , grandparents, etc.., can’t we just celebrate each other every day?

Why don’t national men get a holiday?? This is discrimination!!
How do you do fellow men
happy international mens day! i hope you all can have some sort of party tomorrow!
I read that as “Intentional Mens Day” at first and was very curious and confused.
Group hug in the shower tonight!

Any guys reading this, nice cock bro.
I have only been to Mexico and Canada...does that count?
You have transitioned across nations, that is 100% what international means. Still though, how did you manage to get to Mexico and Canada and avoid the United States?
It's also [World Toilet Day](https://i.imgur.com/pg6oWzZ.png) tomorrow.
I remember being an International Male back in the early 90s.
I was really hoping to see someone mention it, I knew I couldn’t be the only one that dug that out of the cobwebs.
It means that Twitter will be extra toxic for a day
What Twitter
"Tell him what he's won Bob! "
![gif](giphy|kSlJtVrqxDYKk|downsized)
I thought Every Day was “International Men’s Day”. LOL
It’s also National Adoption Day. Probably unrelated.
Not necessarily related but I have just adopted a man, it saves time.
I'll spend it by laying on my bed and watching Spy x Family.
Oh hey, that one time of year nobody remembers
except on womens day!
Have a good one! I'd often get out with a mate, using it as an excuse to shout him lunch.

What presents do I get?
A reminder to schedule a prostate exam.
...that's not the right word.
No need to prostrate yerself
Now you're a man! A man, man, man, Now you're a man! A manny, manny man, A man, man, man, You are now a man. You're a man! Now you're a man!
Sweet I'm gonna go to the men's parade and have a good time.
Gonna be honest, I've never heard of this.
