Encouraging boys to explore their masculine strengths while also learning to explore more typically feminine emotions can be challenging, given society’s narrow stereotypes. Find out why it’s essential—and what positive steps we can take to nurture our sons into happy, healthy men.
Empower girls! The future is female! As a mother of two teenage girls, I celebrate the changes in our society promoting equality and safety. The revolutionary #MeToo and Time’s Up movements are casting bright lights on harassment and discrimination so girls and women can finally live firmly and freely in their feminine strength and power. Hooray! But what about our boys? We want our boys to develop fully and holistically into healthy, strong, and sensitive men who understand their place in the world and treat everyone with the same respect. Often, though, boys find themselves surrounded by messages of sexism, homophobia, violence against women, and the desensitization of male feelings.
