What does it mean to be a masculine man in modern times?
As men, we live in a challenging era.
The misconduct and oppressiveness of certain male public figures has led to condemnation of male behaviour and "male-ness" in general, labelling male power as "toxic masculinity."
Some academics and social activists would have us believe that the experience of gender as "masculine" or "feminine" is itself an artificial social construct, and not inherent in our own nature.
And yet, many men may feel that our masculinity is not arbitrary and not just a product of our upbringing and imagination.
Modern men are bombarded by these confusing and even condemning messages about what it means to be a man, leaving many of us to feel self-conscious about our impulses and guilty just for being men.

THE CONSCIOUS MASCULINITY CONFERENCE 2018, LONDON
This conference is dedicated to men who want to embody their masculinity with responsibility and positive intent.
In the modern world, few men have positive masculine role models, if any at all. Certainly, our media fails to offer many positive examples.
The panel discussion and interactive workshops will focus on CONSCIOUS MASCULINITY: How to embrace both our inner sensitivity and aliveness, and also our power and leadership in the world.
