Toxic Masculinity is something that has gained a wider understanding over the last few years and is thankfully being talked about much more in mainstream media. In this episode, the team explore the roots of the term and the ‘psychic mutilation’ experienced by men as a result of the patriarchal system we live in. Rather than understand these as demands unique to men, we explore how it’s helpful to consider the impact these expectations have on men in the first instance and how - since we live in an unequal society - this then impacts upon women.
