Excellent must-read for any mom of boys!
I've always felt it wrong that we focus so singularly on what women serve to gain from equality, which ironically makes equality that much farther away. What girls get to have by being raised to embrace their emotions should not be gendered. Hopefully one of many books that address the improper socialization of our boys.
A good bit better than girls and sex but still frustrating
super interesting, good read, main takeaway: the porn industry sucks

An eye-opening look at how modern boys navigate intimacy, masculinity, and vulnerability in a culture that often stifles their emotional expression. I loved learning that many boys do want to connect with their emotions- but they’re rarely taught how, are often mocked when they try, and are pressured to suppress vulnerability in order to “be a man.” This book reveals just how deeply boys crave connection, yet how lost they can feel without the tools to express it. After reading, I was left with more compassion and hope for a new kind of masculinity- one that makes space for softness, self-awareness, and real emotional intimacy.. embodying what it means to be true gentle men.

Interesting book. Lots to think about. Don't have much to say right now but it's another brick of information in the wall defining the crisis in masculinity.
