View submission: Men’s Group
Used to be part of a Men's Group in my local city.
The best thing you can do if you're gonna make it public, is for it to be a group to have open discussions *while doing something.*
Very few people joined our sit-down and talk group because men are not primed for introspection, self awareness and discussing emotions. On the contrary, it spooks them. So what works is to do something similar to what the Men's Sheds associations are doing globally: they have activities like wood working, metal working, or even going on hikes (activities that are very male-friendly) and during them start having dialogues and connecting with fellow men. It's the perfect bridge between men and open and interesting discussions that invites them to reflect and introspect.
There's nothing here!
