Feminism is good for men - OTB1 Outside The Boxes
-
- Society & Culture
This is an excerpt of my TEDx talk that I recently gave in India around International Women's Day 2019. Men benefit from patriarchy but they also suffer because of it. So, the power privilege that sexism affords to men, also traps them into narrow boxes and roles.
This talk questions the model of masculinity and the narrow gender boxes that are imposed upon children, and how men are forced to conform to a certain notion of male ideal. The effect on their mental health is not often discussed and talked about.
I run a Feminist Parenting group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/raisingfeminists/
And, my Feminist Parenting course is now open. Registration closes at the end of April. You can find out more and join it here: https://bit.ly/2Dh42hX
