"The Will to Change" Chapter 1: Wanted: Men Who Love - bell hooks 

I can't stand feeling so angry all the time, sometimes I feel like I will never be able to treat my parents and my brother with more kindness and with a joyful and light attitide. When I try to ask my mother how her day has been I become shy and avoid eye contact, as if I wasn't even supposed to care, but I do care and I want to be able to show to my family how much I truly care. This single chapter already speaks deeply to me, and motivates me to continue struggling in the pursuit of being able to love without constraints. Luckily I have no problem showing my girlfriend just how much I love her, and I am able to use our kind and loving relationship as a basis for me to expand the way I love

Even though the feminist movement in the 70s and 80s did not take seriously male suffering and mental health In everyday modern life I've seen that it's not ( or at least rarely is) the mother, the sister, the girlfriend that shames the man for expressing his feelings, and precisely the father, the grandpa, the brother, the friend and stranger... Does the author mentions this in her book? And if so which part?

Someone told me to read this in my comments n now i feel disrespected and confused at the same time

Does the whole book sound like this?

It sounds like the author has a misunderstanding about fatherly love.

Thank you for this offering in honor of our beloved Ancestor bell ❣️🙏🏿🫂

The reading is great! However, for future reference it sounds like you have your mouth close to the speaker which makes it k unbearable to hear. 🫶🏿
