Actually you're wrong. Men don't know perfectly well what they are feeling and how to communicate it. We're raised not to have "unmanly" feelings, and taught to feel shame at needing to express such feeling.
Why is it OK to be empathetic of a woman being confused and having difficulty expressing themselves, but not to feel that for a man?
