Masked Man 16/100: The Masked Defender Miss Amanda Chen Show

- Mental Health
Hello, you’re listening to the Miss Amanda Chen Show and welcome to the first Wednesday of 2021. I’ve got some new episodes for the 100 Masked Men series, where I have candid conversations with anonymous men from all walks of life about what masculinity means to them in the 21st century.
Masked Man #16 is the Masked Defender. In this episode we talk about the stereotypes and assumptions that come as an attractive male personal trainer with mainly female clients, so you can imagine the backlash he might get from male colleagues with his unusual popularity among women.
Personal fitness might look different these days, but the pressure to have the perfect body still exists. There's so much we talk about here, from encouraging women to desire to get stronger, take up boxing and lift weights, but not too much because you’ll start to look like a man. At the end of the day, it’s all about insecurities projected from other people and of course this gets touchy because our most vulnerable moment is when we’re trying to improve our body image. this is a fantastic conversation and i really hope you enjoy the show.
This man is actually the first interview I ever made at the beginning of November for the 100 Masked Men Series and I think now's the perfect time to share his episode as we hit January 2021 with a fresh set of goals.
I've since changed a lot of my views and the way I conduct my interviews, so it's been a fun reflection listening back to this. I hope you enjoy this episode and as always, subscribe to the show and I’ll see you again next Wednesday with some more interviews of 100 masked men.
