I lived in Willamsburg in the 80's when it was heroin central - my it's changed...Thanks for the Bell Hooks recommendation , will get. and btw this is LadyBee - burning man's archivist. I saw your article in Slack and shared it with the BM News channel. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!
Beautifully written! Thank you for going out on a limb and writing this; humans are still suffering from outdated gender norms. As a woman, i always aks strangers for directions to places we can't find; my husband never does that. Why? because, at least when I grew up in 50' s and 60's, women were considered helpless so were expected to ask for help. Men were considered all knowing, and were taught not to ask for help lest they appear weak. DItto for crying - fine for women, a no no for men. What a crock! I"m so glad we're starting to confront toxic masculinity and send it packing. Everyone benefits!
