💭 DESCRIPTION 💭
We received George from TheTinMen! He was once a bad student - perhaps because schools are not made for boys? - but he quickly found his stride after leaving school, establishing himself as a filmmaker. He used to be a member of the Labour Party, though he no longer identifies with it. Over time, he began to notice clear gaps in the progressive narrative, realising that modern feminism, in many ways, was failing men. Today, George draws on scientific research and his talent for communication to challenge the silence surrounding the struggles men face. Why do men live shorter lives? Why are su1cide rates higher amongst them? Why are boys doing worse at school? And how can we encourage more women to listen to men’s experiences? We discussed all this and much more.If you are a man suffering from any of the issues we talked about, please reach out to me or George so we can point you in the direction of the right people to talk to. Thank you!
