About this listen
Many men are struggling, some are in crisis. Society is shocked by male violence and depression – which not only impacts men, but women, children and queer people too – and some of the loudest voices in the space are spouting hateful messages. The word ‘masculinity’ doesn’t always conjure something positive. Better Man is an urgent call to reimagine this; to help boys and men.
Drawing on two decades of work with boys and men, and his own personal experiences, author Ben Vasiliou has written a practical guide on how to promote healthy masculinity. This book tackles the big, contentious issues, such as toxic masculinity and the manosphere, and unpacks the problems at the core of them. Without judgement, Ben shares real life examples of men who’ve experienced shame, or insecurity, or been close-minded, and how his work helped them grow into emotionally aware, healthier people who are thriving, not just surviving.
The best part? Better Man illustrates how to do just that through both broad principles, like avoiding blame and shame; and specific tips and tools, like low-pressure conversation starters.
This book is for anyone raising, teaching, loving – or being – a man. It offers a roadmap away from rigid stereotypes and towards a more expansive, hopeful future of masculinity. When men thrive, so do the communities around them. It’s time to reclaim masculinity for good.
Critic reviews
‘Ben is a man who deeply understands the challenges that boys face. This book cuts through all the noise, and pierces straight to the core of what they truly require from us.’ (Luke Bateman)
