Patriarchy: The Privilege and Punishment of Men


Listen Later

Men are great. Men are wonderful. Men are hurting. Patriarchy. What is it exactly? As much as it privileges men, does it also hurt men? 

If you’re a boxer or briefs person (or none at all) this episode is for you! Hostion and Andrea bravely unpack patriarchy examining the obvious ways it enables men to power and privilege but also examining the ways it is slowly killing and hurting men (as it is also hurting women, non-binary and trans people). Listen to Hostion’s realization of patriarchy after arriving in Canada. Hear how Andrea is trying to combat the negative impacts of patriarchy with her husband as they raise their son. Be compelled to challenge patriarchal systems so that everyone, including men, can be healthier, stronger and better.

P.S. Andrea has a hard time converting American feet to Canadian meters. She should have said 5’9”. Silly American immigrant.
