Episode description
How does toxic masculinity hurt men? From promoting violence to stopping men from seeking help when they suffer mental distress, there’s so many reasons. Is machismo and aggression really inherently part of being a man - and how can young men who want to change get help?
JJ Bola has written a brilliant new book Mask Off: Masculinity Redefined, and we discuss not just how men are hurt - while women are oppressed - but how a new form of masculinity can be nurtured.
