There's Something Absolutely Wrong With What We Do To Boys Before They Grow Into Men [View all]
An example of how patriarchy oppresses men.
"Be a man" is something we've all heard at one time or another, even a few of the women reading this right now. Being a "man" in that sense means something completely different to me (and maybe you, too) than what that phrase implies.
I can't even begin to describe the toll that the concept of masculinity has taken on my life. And it's felt everywhere. It's time we make changes, starting from within ourselves.
