What does it mean to be a man in the 21st Century?

Journalist Victoire Tuaillon created her podcast to answer this question. For two years, she has interviewed researchers and academics to examine, dissect and question masculinity and its effects on culture and society. This is not directly a book about feminism; it’s a book that is simply trying to understand masculinity and virility, showing that they are social constructs that developed over time.

Why are the majority of harassers, rapists and thieves men? Why do little boys say « love is stupid » or « love is for girls »? How does masculine domination also have an effect on men? And why are most things that are manmade made for men?

These and countless other questions are addressed throughout this work. Victoire Tuaillon offers an indispensable and passionate overview of what we know about virility, masculinity and men to help better understand the society we all share, men and women.

Victoire Tuaillon graduated from Sciences-Po Paris, worked for three years for France 2 news, read hundreds of books for a TV program about literature and is now editor-in-chief at Binge Audio. Convinced that knowledge helps us to live, she works on projects that all have one thing in common: they provide an outlet for researchers and intellectuals to share their reflections.
