Today we delve into the sometimes controversial topic of gender roles and discuss how men can be healthier in their masculinity.
In fact, in this video, we talk about some of the reasons men are struggling to know their role these days and what can be done about it.
Here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
A lot of attention gets focused on the topic of gender equality, and rightly so. Women deserve equal pay for equal work and to know they can go to work in a safe environment. However, as the feminist movement has risen to fight for what they deserve, a shift has happened that makes it difficult for men to understand what our role is.
What does healthy masculinity look like in a society that tends to paint it in a bad light? Vikie Shanks and I dive head first into this topic. We discuss things like:
The natural roles of men and women from centuries ago
The need for women to embrace their femininity and men their masculinity
How the feminist movement has left men unsure how to treat women (e.g., do we hold the door open for women or give up our seat on the subway? Or does that make it look like we think they are the “weaker sex”?)
The importance of men stepping up to talk about issues like mental health
How to take out anger and aggression in appropriate ways
In short, if you are a man, this video will show you actionable ways to embrace your masculinity in 2019. If you are a woman, this video might help you see through the eyes of the men in your life.
