Creating Our Own Definition of Manhood
Matt Kailey
http://www.womanist-musings.com/2011/01/creating-our-own-definition-of-manhood.htmlNext week, weather permitting, I will be heading east to the Boston area to participate in the First Event conference, a gender conference hosted by the Tiffany Club of New England, where I will present a workshop called "The New Masculinity: Creating Your Own Definition of Manhood."
I've offered this workshop before, at First Event and in other places, and it is basically a group discussion of the many ways that trans men construct their own masculinity and create their own definitions of what it means to be a man. There is always a wide range of experience based on an infinite number of factors, including age, class, ethnicity, geographic location, and life experience.
