Men who aren't supported often take that out on the women in their lives. They get clingy, angry, dangerous. They're not just in the way, they're a threat. Whereas men who are loved and supported can do great things (and without victimizing others).

A lot of good men want to be feminists. One way to practice feminism, besides supporting the flourishing of women, is to support the spirit of men. I really need men to step this up this year. twitter.com/greenwoodae/st

Being loved and supported in only one of two major ways, and I think only suits about half of all men. The other half basically need to go explore some sort of frontier through 20s. I think being kicked out of the collective and finding a hero’s journey back is sort of innate.

As a data point for you, I often have young guys reaching out to me explicitly for “mentorship”. Some even offer to intern for free. I always turn them away. They are for Jordan Peterson types. People I can actually help usually approach with a collaboration idea.
