What is the very modeling of modern masculinity?

Description
Following Maggie Dent’s appearance on the show this week - Osher takes a moment to reflect on what it even means to be a man in 2024. The way we have reframed the role and place of women in our community gives us a far more wonderful world to be in than 30, 50 or 100 years ago. For all of us. Feminism has given women the choice to be feminine, masculine, a CEO, a stay at home mum, girly, sexual, powerful, none of the above or all of the above, each of those choices to be seen as a choice to be respected - and yet I wonder - while we have been rightly reframing the role and place of women in our community, and seeing the benefits that we all share from that, have we been paying attention to addding similar amounts of choice to the roles and place of men and boys in our community, or a similar amount of respect to those choices? Additionally, there’s a surprising amount of talk about Australian rivers in this episode (it all ties in to the idea, we promise).
