On one side, they’re told masculinity is toxic, dangerous, and something to suppress. On the other, they’re sold an extreme version of masculinity built on ego, dominance, and material success.So what’s the truth?We unpack why the rise of the manosphere isn’t the root problem — it’s a reaction. A reaction to a lack of direction, lack of role models, and a lack of real masculinity.And more importantly, we break down what real masculinity actually looks like. 💪🏻 Try Rokman's Online Running & Fitness Challenge Platform: https://rokman.co.uk/?utm_campaign=Rokman_YouTube&utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_content=50-BJ-Stagner🏋🏻 Free 6-Week Total Body Strength & Fitness Plan: https://mailchi.mp/rokman/free-bodyweight-plan🎙️Get notified when new Rokman Podcast episodes get released: https://mailchi.mp/rokman/podcast-alerts Connect with BJ: https://www.bjstagner.com
