Men's Rights: Mel Feit Sheds Light on Modern Masculinity

I think the women's movement has gotten more strident. And yet you hesitated before when I mentioned war of the sexes. But okay, you're raising what I think is a really good question, because I think that one of the things you can do- and I do this periodically- you go online and you read what men say about women when there's anonymity and no one's going to know who they are.
Ever felt like society just doesn't get what men go through? In this episode of 'The Blum Show', Mel Feit, director of The National Center for Men, dives deep into the often-overlooked struggles that men face today. Why are men portrayed so negatively in the media? Why do women and children always seem to come first? And why do women who ask men to open up emotionally sometimes recoil when they actually do?
Feit doesn't shy away from these tough questions. He also tackles the rise of online misogyny and the challenges men encounter when expressing their insecurities. The conversation then shifts to what it really means to be masculine or feminine in today's world and offers practical advice for men embroiled in custody battles. This episode isn't just about airing grievances; it's about sparking a nuanced conversation around men's rights and societal expectations.
Tune in to hear a candid discussion that challenges traditional gender roles and advocates for a more balanced view of masculinity.
