Why Young Men Are Falling Behind—And What To Do

Talking points: culture, masculinity, social issues

Inspired by a recent article in the WSJ. Young men are facing some serious difficulties right now. We need to not just be aware of what’s going on, but follow that up with coherent, intelligent action.

I’m not some genius who can declare national-level policy changes, but I KNOW what works on an individual level. If you’re a man who’s struggling in the face of increasing isolation and an uncertain future, here are five things you can work on right now.

(00:09:44) - Young men now have to struggle against modern culture more than ever

(00:14:05) - Why can men do on an individual level in the face of all this? Number one: stop blaming women.

(00:18:06) - Number two: set right your relationship to risk

(00:20:30) - Number three and four: engage in healthy confrontation, and make friends with people you respect

(00:24:53) - Number five: you’ve got to set in shape. Prioritize actually living IN your body
