Normalizing compassion for men. Not a popular invitation. ➡️ But a necessary one to create collective culture change. 🙏 Yesterday I attended a Compassion for men "Together space" hosted by Daniele Fiandaca and Lisa Barnwell. (Thanks again for doing this ❤️) It was refreshing to participate in a constructive dialogue on this issue, without: - Zero-sum thinking ❌ - #Whataboutism ❌ - Partisanship ❌ --- We talked about the barriers preventing #compassion for men to be perceived, performed, and what could be done to create change. --- Here is what I shared: 1️⃣ Narratives of Masculinity +> The hyperbolic cultural discourse on masculinity, focused on narratives about the most successful men and the most harmful men, misguides our perception of the lived experiences of the vast majority of men. +> Male disposability is the unfortunate blind spot of the gender conversation. --- 2️⃣ Decoupling Male violence from Male Pain +> Perceiving men solely through a lens of #privilege is dehumanizing. +> Framing gender dynamics solely through a lens of #power struggle is counterproductive. --- 3️⃣ Compassion for men benefits women +> When we humanize the lived experiences of men, outside of the lens of power and privilege, we unlock the possibility that they can struggle, and deserve support. +> When we unlock that possibility, we free the world from patriarchal narratives which traps men into the shameful silence of their own challenges. --- Here is the punchline: 🥊 The rightful outrage about male violence should not negate the rightful concerns for male struggles. --- ✍️ How do you show compassion for men? ♻️ Share this post if it brought you value

EXACTLY! As I tell my mid-20s daughter, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. I know a woman who is a marriage therapist. I genuinely adore her. She also has breasts that she shares with the world in an EXTRA fashion. Almost every video and photo of her has her breasts on full, unapologetic display. I once commented, and she said that her boobs were part of her brand. I bit my tongue. Here brand?!! She's a therapist and, IMO her breasts should never be a distraction from her work with a client. palm smack. I believe in every woman's right to have self-expression. I believe that it is really none of my business. But I do have a question: How do you, on the one hand, claim to empower women and, on the other hand, exploit their bodies? I am not kidding when I say this. Will someone in this thread explain that to me? #womenthink #leadership #DEI #leader #womenleadership #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipskills #leadershipJourney #leadershipcoaching #PersonalGrowth #womenintech #personalgrowthanddevelopment #personalgrowthcoach #professionaldevelopment #ProfessionalGrowth #CareerDevelopment #feminism #equity #inclusion #careercoachings #diversity #emotionalintelligence #genderbias #genderstereotypes #internationalwomensday

It's not about Men vs Women. It's about the culture of rape normalized over decades through movies and songs objectifiying women, through research that proclaims men cannot control sexual urge which is natural, through internet without regulations which has free access to porn,through a culture that dances on sexualised vulgar songs in marriages & celebrations, through an education that doesn't bother to teach about one's own body and others, about emotions and individuality, through parents who focused only on marks and not building character values. We were a culture that revered Kali as Ma ,though her appearance is provocative. A culture that values a masculinity that is of the Virya, a Kshatriya who protects the truth.This Virya is the Shakti herself. A culture who idolized Shiva,Ram, and Krishna as the ideal. It's time we reclaim our culture. Focus on cultivating character and not just a blind focus on monetary status and degrees as a parameter of our success.

Today, I’m drawing attention to the double standards of self-pride. We live in a society which often sends mixed messages about self-worth and confidence, praising some while condemning others for the very same traits. This hypocrisy undermines the essence of genuine self-respect and perpetuates inequality. Consider how we view men and women differently when they exhibit self-pride. A man who is confident and assertive is often seen as a leader, someone to be admired. Yet, a woman with the same qualities can be labelled as bossy or arrogant. The same goes for cultural and racial biases. Individuals from marginalised communities who proudly celebrate their heritage and identity might be accused of being overly sensitive or divisive. Meanwhile, similar expressions of pride from more dominant groups are often celebrated as patriotism or cultural appreciation. This hypocrisy is not just unfair; it's damaging. It sends a clear message: self-pride is a privilege reserved for some, not a right for all. This creates an environment where only certain people feel entitled to embrace and express their true selves, while others are shamed into silence. Breaking down these double standards starts with recognising them. Self-pride should be universal. It should not be determined by gender, race, culture, or any other factor. #selfpride #culture #barriers

Part 6: Anarcha-Feminism (or Anarchist Feminism) is another offshoot of Radical Feminism and combines Feminist and Anarchist beliefs in which patriarchy is viewed as a manifestation of hierarchy so that the fight against patriarchy is an essential part of the class struggle and the Anarchist struggle against the state. Black Feminism (or Womanism) argues that sexism, class oppression and racism are inextricably bound together. Alice Walker and other Womanists claim that black women experience a different and more intense kind of oppression from that of white women. Socialist Feminism (or Marxist Feminism) connects the oppression of women to Marxist ideas about exploitation, oppression and labor. Socialist Feminists see the need to work alongside men and all other groups, and to focus their energies on broad change that affects society as a whole, and not just on an individual basis. Liberal Feminism (or Individualist Feminism) seeks the equality of men and women through political and legal reform. Liberal Feminists see the personal individual interactions between men and women as the place from which to transform society and argue that no major change to the structure of society is needed.

WORLD MEN'S DAY! On this International Men's Day, we honor the strength, resilience, and compassion that men bring to our communities. Today, we celebrate those who challenge stereotypes, embrace vulnerability, and stand up for equality. True masculinity is not defined by dominance but by the capacity to uplift others, to listen, and to support those in need. Let us recognize the diverse roles men play as fathers, partners, friends, and leaders, and encourage them to express their emotions openly. Together, we can redefine what it means to be a man in today’s world—where kindness is strength, and unity is power. As we move forward, let us foster a culture of respect and understanding, empowering every man to be authentic and to contribute positively to society. Let’s inspire future generations to build a world where everyone, regardless of gender, feels valued and supported. HAPPY INTERNATIONAL MEN'S DAY!! #STEVEKINGS #Thepowerofwordscanchangetheworld #Ourlittlebeggining
