S5E16: Conversations About Toxic Masculinity

Mar 21, 2022

Oxford English Dictionary defines masculinity as "Qualities or attributes regarded as characteristic of men."

In S5E16, Harjit and Mariam talk to medical students Sajjad Askaryar and Neil Sahasrabudhe about challenging societal and cultural definitions and standards of what it means to be a man, and embodying masculine traits in a way that is healthy and authentic to their own identities.
