Blind Insights - Reconstituting Masculity and Fixing Male Problems (Special Guest Peter Thomson)

Boys are growing up without fathers, getting addicted to drugs, doing worse in schools, getting incarcerated, and committing suicide. With all the inequality in the world, how do we tackle these issues? How are men meant to establish a sense of meaning while their traditions are being torn down from their patriarchal heritage? Warren Farrell and Philip Zimbardo have written some excellent literature on the problems that face men and boys and Peter helps unpack these ideas for a heavy discussion on constituting maleness.

Consider Alian De Botton's account of modern male identity.
