Ep. 7 - Masculinity is a Prison
Manage episode 407249210 series 3559087
Do you want to be horny or do you want to be happy, comrades...?
Isn't it funny how masculinity resembles a school resembles a prison resembles a clinic resembles a so on and so on and so on...The long-awaited follow-up episode to Red Library's two-parter on bell hooks's The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love is finally here!
Comrade Ryan, God Empress Victoria Magna, and new comrade on the show, Danny, join The Chairman™ to talk about masculinity, loneliness, dragging Jungians, myth and gender, Avatar 2: The Way of Wa Wa, and lots more! We also get really personal on a free-ranging discussion and DP thought experiment about the nature of masculinity and its inherent contradictions.
Which way, Western Man - horniness or happiness? For the dialectical pessimist, perhaps it's the unspoken third option...both.
