Equity Masculinity: Replacing Toxic Masculinity and White Patriarchy!

Getting rid of the gender gap shouldn’t be just women’s work.

Men need to move past being passive feminists or allies, into direct co-conspirators.

We need to track how the gap works, where it is, who sustains it, how it gets beaten back, and what we can each do to push back further.

And while we are at it, we also need to talk about race discrimination and other ways we live in systemic inequality.

That means we need to fix Toxic Masculinity and the White Patriarchy.

So if you’re a Vancouver-area man, a feminist and an ally, let’s meet up to get better at making a difference! Message me to join the Slack space, help guide the gathering, which will be in February 2020 at The Tipper on Kingsway at Fraser in East Vancouver, served by the 19, 20 and 25 buses.

Food and beverages are available for purchase. Come at 6pm if you'd like to have dinner with me before the meeting.

And for motivation and inspiration, here is a Twitter thread capturing some of the reasons why we need to do this work. And here's a longer post about why I'm starting this event.

And join me on the 29th for some excellent education about identity and masculinity!
