This week on the Manhood Tribes show, we discuss the confusion surrounding manhood and masculinity in modern Western culture. We propose returning to simplicity and clarity in understanding what it means to be a man. We talk about the 5 Marks of Manhood—strength, courage, skill, honor, and allegiance—as traits all men should possess and improve upon. These traits are presented as morally neutral, essential for demonstrating manhood but not necessarily making one a 'good' man. We also emphasize the importance of relationships, particularly with other men, for cultivating these traits and becoming an extraordinary man. The series aims to provide clarity around manhood and offer ways for men to challenge themselves and grow in each of these areas.
