It’s June which means it’s men’s mental health month, SO this episode is about toxic masculinity and how it ties into men’s mental health🧠I always heard the phrase, but i didn’t actually know what toxic masculinity was until i started preparing for this video LOL but it’s pretty interesting and if you’re a man you can probably testify to toxic masculinity’s existence and how the narratives it pushes are problematic. Use the timestamps if you want and enjoy!🌸💜
