Act Like a Man
Despite some shifts in male gender roles and models of masculinity, in most respects, cultural expectations around how men are supposed to act have been highly resistant to change. The rules of masculinity suffuse our culture at every level and, as a result, exert a strong influence on relationships, sexuality, and gender roles. With over 20 years of experience discussing and teaching workshops on this topic, Charlie Glickman PhD will explore some of the ways that these cultural messages affect how people of all genders and sexual orientations continue to shape and define masculinity. We'll discuss the ways in which boys and men are shamed for violating the rules of masculinity, how the pressure that exerts on them reinforces and reifies gender roles, and discuss strategies for responding to it in more positive ways. Come get some new perspectives on gender and masculinity.
