In this conversation I sit down with George from The Tin Men to discuss issues that disproportionately affect men. We both find that in feminist spaces conversations about men tend to be drowned out by slogans that say "men did this to themselves," or "well the patriarchy affects men too," but is that why men are living shorter lives? Or have fallen behind in education? Or die by suicide more? How can we have these conversations and integrate them into our lives without it taking away from...

On a cold winter day I was walking my dads dog in the woods near his house. The trees were magnificent, the sun was shining, Khloe was happy. Someone else was on the trail coming toward me, I've never seen a stranger on these trails before. As we met, I soon discovered we were meeting under opposite ends of our beliefs. How can one treat a stranger in such strange times in this context? Do we seek to change? Do we seek to understand before we seek to be understood? How do we navigate these...
