In this essential episode, we go beyond the surface of Santiago Duran's groundbreaking essay, "MASCULINITY: HANDLE WITH CARE." Duran argues that despite talk of "new standards," modern masculinity remains a high-pressure, defensive state. We explore:The meaning of the "fragile cage" and the restrictions it places on male emotional expression.The societal demand for men to be a "Success Object," where worth is tied solely to achievement.The deep-rooted expectation of male disposability and the myth of heroic sacrifice.How acknowledging vulnerability is often weaponized as a sign of weakness.This is a vital conversation for anyone ready to dismantle the burden of silent suffering and foster true, honest connection.Have you felt the intense pressure to achieve? To be silent? To sacrifice? "MASCULINITY: HANDLE WITH CARE," illuminates the high cost of modern manhood. Duran challenges the notion that masculinity can be "fixed" without first recognizing the deep-seated pain. We tackle the core topics: the cruel paradox of being told to open up, only to be punished when you do; the relentless focus on men as a "Success Object"; and the ingrained expectation of male disposability. This episode is a call to action: to stop defending the "fragile cage" and embrace the power of recognizing your own pain.-----------I love sharing insights, ideas, and experiences that spark conversations and inspire new perspectives.
