Had an interesting conversation today with a man who believes that the term 'midlife crisis' is derogatory and misandrist.
The basis of this was that when women of around the same age go off and find new hobbies or interests, learning new skills or sports etc, it's seen as her empowering herself and discovering a new side to her personality; when a man does it it is seen as pathetic and he is made fun of by women and society in general.
Does he have a point?
