Sujith Ravindran: are we accidentally raising lost boys?

Society is facing a crisis of masculinity, which is leading to harmful behaviour and violence towards women. Many cultures understand the need to initiate boys to men. We, in the west, have lost that understanding, that opportunity. As a consequence, are we inadvertently raising lost boys? Is it time to rediscover initiation?

This is some of Sujith's work. He is a champion of the contemporary men's movement, a space-holder for policy makers and organisational leaders across the globe, and a pioneer in the understanding and rehabilitation of masculinity in society. He is a prolific writer and wise teacher.

In this episode, Sujith and Ben explore the impact of societal conditioning on boys and how it contributes to harmful behaviour, as well as ways to facilitate conversations around masculinity to create a healthier and more respectful society for everyone.
