  • Redefining Masculinity In Crisis
    Jun 27 2025

    Welcome to Critical Culture, Episode 11: Redefining Masculinity In Crisis

    In this thought-provoking episode, we dive deep into the state of masculinity.

    Masculinity has been in a crisis of various sorts depending on who you talk to. Some people think it’s been largely lost, others rail against toxic masculinity, and there is also a growing awareness of the crisis of how men are falling behind. There are roughly 4 billion men on the planet, and 8 billion judges, there is room for all of these situations to coexist.

    We’ll talk about these problems and where we go from here. But first what is it that makes up masculinity? Does it have one true or best form? What are its parts? What are its various forms?
