After several conversations with people after our response to the Gillette video, Just Be Nice Project Founder - Josh steps up to discuss a way forward.
Yes, the video is longer than the recommended digestible length for social media, but maybe the discussion of masculinity, character and being good men needs more than 90 seconds of our time. Rather than always speaking about what being a good man isn't, let's start a discussion about what we think a good man is. Let's decide on what kinds of behaviour and character we are going to support and promote, and build a culture of strong, engaged, interested, caring, intelligent, open and understanding men. What does it mean to be a man to you? What kind of men would you like to see? What does positive masculinity look like to you, in a future where we have communities of people that look out for one another, who open doors for one another, who lift each other up and ensure everyone feels safe and supported? Moving forward requires looking forward, so let's set some aspirations to improve equality of opportunity for all, and help everyone be the best they can be. |
