To know love, men must be able to look at the ways that patriarchal culture keeps them from knowing themselves, from being in touch with their feelings, from loving. In The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love, bell hooks shows men how to express the emotions that are a fundamental part of who they are — whatever their age, marital status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. Hooks addresses the most common concerns of men, such as fear of intimacy and loss of their superior status in society, in new and challenging ways. She believes men can find the way to spiritual unity by getting back in touch with the emotionally open part of themselves — and lay claim to the rich and rewarding inner lives that have historically been the exclusive province of women. The Will to Change is designed to help men reclaim the best part of themselves.
