Chris Hemmings, BE A MAN: How Macho Culture Damages Us and How to Escape It

Men are currently experiencing, and perhaps always have experienced, a unique set of challenges about what it means to be a 'man' and how to interact with others as a man. Indeed, the book argues that men face an identity crisis based on their problematic upbringing, socialisation and lived reality. The acculturation of boys and men is creating generations after generations of maladjusted citizens unable to find a personal and social balance in society with women and other men.

Abstract

Men are currently experiencing, and perhaps always have experienced, a unique set of challenges about what it means to be a 'man' and how to interact with others as a man. Indeed, the book argues that men face an identity crisis based on their problematic upbringing, socialisation and lived reality. The acculturation of boys and men is creating generations after generations of maladjusted citizens unable to find a personal and social balance in society with women and other men.
