Through conscious discussions with complementary data , we work to destroy toxic cycles both personally and interpersonally. Encouraging healthier constructs for masculinity that can contribute more harmonious union.
We explore topics such as:
- How does masculinity look across different cultures and traditions?
- How can we continue to foster positive development in this area?
- What can we do to support men to express emotions other than anger and lust?
- How can we raise healthy masculine men in multicultural relationships?
- What does healthy masculinity look like in women?
The future of healthy masculinity is in our hands to create.
Next roundtable starts soon!
Masculinity is informed by our histories, therefore not all men experience masculinity in the same way. In our healthy Masculine Empowered in numbers community, we educate and explore the fundamentals of moving away from toxic masculinity for the benefit of both men and women. Healthy masculinity is not about size, strength, or power to get what you want from others. It is about honesty, authenticity, respect and curiosity that supports the well being of all. In order to learn what healthy masculinity is and truly put it into daily practice, we must engage in a process of communication and intentional growth with a commitment to change any damaging habits. With community, communication, focus, and intention – healthy masculinity is definitely possible.
Not all men experience and derive power from masculinity in the same way. In our capitalist world order, wealthy men are higher up in the hierarchy than less economically privileged individuals. As a construct, masculinity is a racialized and informed by histories of slavery and colonialism. Whiteness is deemed to be the default, the norm, and confers relative entitlement and privilege onto White men.
In line with this society has constructed preconceived notions about men of certain races. For instance, black men are constructed as hyper-masculine, Asian men as feminine, and Arab men as deviant. Racialized masculinities demonstrate how our most intimate realities, in this case our ideas of manhood, are entangled in the history of political events on a macro level, and in the most insidious ways.
