Depends on the problem and the less time spent yapping about it, the faster it gets taken care of.

Apparently the writer has just met males for the first time. We all already knew this.

You can waste time talking about problems, or you can try to solve them.
Although, sometimes solving them involves talking about them. Someone might have a useful idea, or know where to go/who to talk to to get the problem solved.

“But their partners may just not be interested and expect that other coping mechanisms will make them feel better”
... like finding a broad who isn’t always yammering about sharing.

It took a PhD to figure this out. I go comatose discussing ‘problems’ with women.

Well, maybe not. There is a feller at 1600 Pennsylvania that considers dialog in the US House and Senate to be nothing but “ bickering.” He routinely calls for talking to stop so that he alone can fix the problem. Yep, I said that nasty sexist word “he.” So in this ONE exceptional case I find myself in agreement with the pointy-heads in Ivyland: “Just shut up and do it MY way!”
To: decimon
Unless one is seeking a solution, typically all this does is cause you to dwell on the problem and re-create it.
Speaking into existence, to go all kabballah.

Bad news for psychotherapists. But then, they’ve known it for a long time.

Money quote:
On the other hand, many girls are at risk for excessive problem talk, which is linked with depression and anxiety, so girls should know that talking about problems isnt the only way to cope.
Is it only me, or has modern psychology become extremely weird? Maybe because the lack of males in leadership has taken away any balance in the group ...
