"Toxic Masculinity” Stereotypes | FRIDAY FIELD NOTES

  • Summary

  • Ryan Michler believes traditional masculinity isn’t inherently toxic; it’s simply misunderstood. In this episode, he unravels the complexities surrounding toxic masculinity, challenging the myths that paint masculinity as harmful. Drawing on a pivotal 2019 study by the American Psychological Association, Ryan highlights the critical need for a balanced understanding of masculinity’s role in society, emphasizing that traditional masculine traits—when constructively channeled—can bring comfort, security, and innovation.

    Ryan’s discussion explores men and women as complementary forces, underscoring the indispensable contributions of men to societal progress. He delves into “righteous aggression,” a principle that advocates for assertive yet patient action against wrongdoing. By clarifying misconceptions around stoicism, he shows that it’s about emotional regulation rather than suppression, fostering resilience and enhancing communication.

    Through personal stories, Ryan demonstrates the power of true masculinity in protection, provision, and leadership. He calls on men to be role models who redefine masculinity by embodying strength through positive actions, helping create a culture where authentic masculinity is celebrated and visible.
