Be A Man About It: Building a Healthier Idea of Masculinity delivers an insightful and eye-opening new discussion of modern masculinity. George Bell lays out how a silent pressure cooker is building in men, fuelled by the weight of historical, biological, and societal context. This pressure is reaching breaking point, exploding into challenges men are facing in everyday life. Hidden taboos and stigmas, the things we talk about and the things we don't, the conversations we should be having, but aren't. Addictions, a growing male loneliness epidemic, a resistance to healthcare support, sexual function issues, a growing suicide rate, and more. But there is an attainable future where we can release this pressure in healthier ways. Bell puts forward ideas for how we can build a more flexible idea of masculinity, celebrate our men and thrive alongside women. Each section is packed with first-hand insights, modern data and research, and comments from a wide variety of guests and experts, including army veterans, athletes, professors, doctors, authors, artists, first responders and people who have lost others or nearly lost themselves.
