Today I’m going to talk about masculinity -and why masculinity is as important now as it has been throughout history. I will also be challenging the term ‘toxic masculinity.’ The term ‘toxic masculinity’ wrongfully connects masculinity with negative behaviors that are actually rooted in a lack of maturity and self-control. We'll look at what masculinity is -and why men should strive to be genuinely masculine.
