FORBES: It’s Time to Redefine Masculinity
- In the wake of the #MeToo movement, people have recognized that it’s not enough to “empower” women—in order to make progress, we also need to tackle the pervasive problem of toxic masculinity.
- On the topic of toxic masculinity, Datwon Thomas, editor-in-chief of VIBE, describes it as “a sickness” that we’re finally talking about after society has overlooked it for far too long. “I think particularly the millennials and Gen Z are really pushing against that and pushing back, with their gender fluidity and kind of non-binary and sexually nonconforming identities,” Emil Wilbekin, founder of Native Son, adds optimistically. “I think it’s a great time for change.”
- After decades of advertisements too often dripping with sexism and misogyny and reinforcing traditional “alpha male” behavior, it’s time for brands to not only take responsibility for the impact their content has on consumers’ worldview and mental health—but actually help advocate for a more enlightened future free of toxic masculinity.
