Promote policies that benefit everyone. By promoting policies such as hybrid work and parental leave that benefit everyone, workplaces will attract and retain a more diverse workforce, which leads to greater innovation. Encourage men to take advantage of these policies and ensure your company culture makes it acceptable to do so. This enables men to actually experience the benefit of these initiatives. Align efforts around shared values – such as the desire for healthier families, better education or stronger economies.

i like that it acknowledges that the work culture also needs to encourage men to take parental leave. just having it available doesn't help if a guy knows it will be considered negatively and possibly hinder advancement.

I'm sorry, this article is incredibly grating to me. It softens aggrieved entitlement as "men associating power with control," and prescribes appeasement (read: empathy) for men who subscribe to this. This is all bundled in neoliberal business talk that seeks to erase the necessity of abolishing hierarchy to heal masculinity from capitalism and colonialism. It isn't inspiring and I don't think this is even a genuine attempt at empathy. Men who feel threatened by women in the workplace because they are just that insecure about themselves and the hierarchy isn't a healthy relationship with the world and should not be fostered under the guise of empathy. That isn't healthy for them and it isn't genuinely relating to them.

This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.


Rules

Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people


Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.



Be productive


Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.

Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:

  • Build upon the OP
  • Discuss concepts rather than semantics
  • No low effort comments
  • No personal attacks


Assume good faith


Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.



No bigotry


Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.



No brigading


Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.
