The Mask Men Wear: The Stoic Mask

  • Summary

  • Today on the Man Up Podcast, we have two amazing men joining us to talk about the masks men wear. Carlos White and Rev. Leon Wright share their experiences wearing The Stoic Mask or The I’m Good Mask. Lewis Howes, in his book, The Mask Of Masculinity, reveals the mask this way:


    THE STOIC MASK- Because every man must be invulnerable and tough, emotions are carefully managed and suppressed. There can be no crying, no pain, no feeling. A wall is put up between him and the world to protect him, to pretend he doesn't feel the things he does because weakness is an invitation to scrutiny, judgment, and rejection.


    In this episode, we explore what elements went into creating this mask. What hinders a man from taking off this mask? Why do men feel that they need The Stoic Mask? As well as our fear of removing it.
