An eye-opening piece on the inadequacy of psychiatric care in developing economies. Why "The Men Cry in the Dark" though? The article seems to be about both men and women and features a profile of a young woman with no discussion of male-specific issues.
- rrgok 4y agoI was wondering the same thing. Unless, they mean "The Men" as in human species. It is a little misleading anyway.
- chki 4y agoIn some (online) newspapers it's not uncommon for headlines to be just an interesting quote from the article and not the actual topic of the article. It's somewhat clickbaity and comes from the fact that the headlines are written by different people than the articles.
- chmod775 4y agoIt's referring to this: > But the men stayed away. Verzosa and the team from the Health Ministry couldn’t figure out why. But when they changed the time of the meeting to 6 p.m., the men suddenly showed up as well. > After all, it’s harder to see the tears in the gathering dusk. Men find it easier to cry when it’s dark.
- luckylion 4y agoIt's always strange when someone immediately reaches for that kind of explanation instead of considering something much simpler: that it's easier to attend a 6pm meeting after work than tell your boss that you're taking a few hours off. But then again, it's Die Zeit, their audience has some expectations that need to be fulfilled.
- hilariouswhip 4y agoYeah. Like really, you can’t see eyes well up at dusk? Or hear sniffling?
