Suggestions for men to develop proper masculinity (lemmy.zip)

toxic masculinity, tons of people aware of the bad things but most people think its taboo for men to think about their social reformation.

Some of my more well versed lady friends basically describe it like "the women can't do all the social reformation, men gotta do their part too"

Would be nice to make this thread into a list of resources, like groups, YouTube channels, websites, books, whatever.

It would be very helpful to define these things for people too I think, I don't think there is a name for men's social revolution yet, or at least one that is well known.

Also, sleep, diet, exercise.

I've been getting into that the past year or so and I wish somebody told me sooner that if you get this basics right, you essentially become a 10x better version of yourself in everything lol

Just some advice for other men. "Reason is, and ought to be the slave of the passions." Fellas, listen to your heart and speak your truth. You can't think your way out of feeling; your heart gives no fucks about reason or correctness. Be gentle with yourself, be honest, and don't suppress yourself. We are all complex primates who require complex care. Care for yourself.
