I heard that as the real definition of manpain a long time ago, and it made sense when I heard it. The trouble is that in all that time I haven't seen or been able to think of a real example it. Instead people call it manpain and treat any emotional reaction from the man as "making it all about HIIIIIIIM."

Ah, unless "How could I let this happen to her? I HATE MYSELF" counts. That's the closest thing I've actually seen to a man making a woman's suffering about him.

I think Dr Who exhibits quite a lot of manpain, especially the tenth doctor. For example, when he has to wipe Donna's memory, because she can't survive having his knowledge, we're given a close up of David Tennant's face, which makes it seem as though the message isn't "Poor Donna, she has a time bomb in her head," but "Poor me, I lose all my companions."

I really wasn't fond of Ten before that, because of how he treated Martha mostly, but oh my god that scene was the nail in the coffin for me. I also didn't like how he DIDN'T LISTEN TO HER SAYING "NO DON'T DO IT" because watching her die would make him too sad. buuuut anyway, enough about my feelings lol.

It's definitely there in a lot of shows. I don't know anyone who watches Nashville and the fandom is almost nonexistent but the character Deacon is a perfect example of this bullshit.
