00:00 Introduction

It should come as no surprise that in today’s world, particularly in the US but also internationally, we find ourselves in an increasingly superficial society. The pervasiveness of advertising, the allure of celebrity, and the nature of competition both economic and otherwise, all contribute to narrow definitions of success and indeed narrow definitions of manhood; a good deal of this also has to do with changing social dynamics on the topic of gender and the idea of so-called toxic masculinity. These conversations can be divisive to be sure and we will discuss them today but that’s not our only aim, we’d also like to dispel some other societal myths and indeed lies about what it means to be a man and how to move past them when navigating modern society.

01:23 Lie #1: A man must always be independent and solve his problem alone.
03:05 Lie #2: Wealth determines a man’s value.
04:34 Lie #3: All men should follow the same life trajectory.
06:00 Lie #4: Men shouldn’t be emotional.
08:10 Lie #5: Masculinity is defined by physical strength or athletic ability.
09:36 Lie #6: Masculinity is defined by your fame, fortune, intellect, and power.
09:49 Lie #7: Masculinity is defined by objectifying women.

11:04 What makes a gentleman in our opinion:

1. A gentleman recognizes that he is imperfect but at the same time, he maintains high standards and has a drive for continual lifelong self-improvement.
2. He is well-mannered, respectful, and courteous, and acknowledges everyone’s personal dignity.
3. He is well informed but also open-minded, willing to consider the perspectives of others alongside his own learnings.
4. He recognizes the differences between aggressiveness and assertiveness, confidence and arrogance, and commands respect without being a jerk.
5. Of course, a gentleman is well dressed, but again, as a matter of personal improvement rather than as a flashy display of wealth.
