"I watched a small son get pummelled. 'That was fun,' he said flatly when it was over. Heading back to the gym, one notably silent son told me that his father had made him come." —Charles Bethea for The New Yorker https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2026/04/06/the-camps-promising-to-turn-you-or-your-son-into-an-alpha-male?src=longreads #alphamale #masculinity #fatherhood #longreads

♂️ “Klein says he’s seen patients who have unrealistic sexual expectations from porn build a dependency on ED drugs. “Once people can get an erection with medication, they’re slow to give up the medication,” he says.

Modern society presents masculinity in isolation. Figure it out yourself. Don't ask for help. Tough it out.

That's against our nature. Men have always relied on community, on other men who've been through it. Somewhere along the way we lost that.

Becoming a father is one of the biggest transitions of your life. You shouldn't have to figure it out alone. That's what we're building.

♂️ Our mental health, and the health of our families and marriages, is “precarious.” Beware those who will use these against you.

“Precarious manhood beliefs are often reinforced by cultural norms that associate masculinity with strength, independence, and dominance. When men feel that these expectations are not met, they may experience anxiety, shame, or social insecurity.”

Countries holding stronger precarious manhood beliefs tend to be less happy, study finds
