The New Masculinity
The new masculinity is about endings.
Ending cultures of violence.
Ending in-group enforcement.
Ending coercion into roles — gender and otherwise.
How do we end these things?
We refrain from pedestalizing men.
We stop rewarding machismo.
We flag toxic behaviors.
We recognize how frightened men are
of softness, complexity, of being seen as unworthy.
Then we hold men accountable
regardless of the things they are frightened of.
— Daniel Baylis
