Hello, I’m Raymond Cuttill. Welcome to the very first post of MalesForum.com blog and a podcast called The Power of Positive Masculinity.
I’m here to set the record straight.
First of all masculinity is good. It is not toxic. There is no such thing as toxic masculinity. Masculinity is part of most species. In most cases it’s half of those species. My intention here to discuss the various aspects of masculinity including its necessity, usefulness and almost inevitability of having it if you have a sexual species. I will talk about how we arrived where we are today and talk about the evolution of sexual species, as well as other types of species, and how masculinity comes about.
I dispute any concept of toxic masculinity. There are toxic people, some of whom are masculine, Masculinity in itself has nothing to apologise for. It is not toxic and there should be no more saying that anything about masculinity is toxic and there would be about saying anything about femininity is toxic. They are two halves and they are positive when they work together.
In any case a reference to masculinity is a reference to all sexual species. You cannot talk about the masculinity of men as if it is separate from the masculinity of lions or dogs or frogs. They are all masculine and often share masculine traist, such as comepeting for females.
Is my intention to discuss some of these aspects in detail on the podcast and have a discussion forum and coaching available.
Any questions? Contact me at ppm@leavepost.com. I shall be adding social media in due course.
