Greetings!
I know, I know... I wrote another guest post.
I haven't published a piece for my personal blog in a few weeks, but it's been nice contributing to a few other blogs lately! I love sharing my voice and hope it allows for others to come forward with theirs as well.
I was asked by the #SAFeminist folks at the Student Affairs Feminist blog to write a post from the male perspective, so I did!
I decided to discuss how men can discuss feminism with resistant men. I've already received a lot of great feedback from this post and I am so glad it is helping further this very important dialogue.

Here are a few previews for you!"Feminism is an interesting topic in the masculinities realm because I have found that some men are quite resistant to identify as a feminist.
Feminism—simply put—is advocating for gender equity. For all.
And men—simply put—are not good at sharing. At all."
"Men will always have privilege. Men do not need to apologize or feel guilty for their privilege—however, what we do with this privilege is what determines the future of our culture. So, in order to complete this step, make that point clear to men."
"[in] order for true gender equity to occur, men need to learn to just step aside and be comfortable with women—and anyone who doesn’t identify as cis-male—being bad asses."
"Gender equity isn’t about losing your man card. It’s about recognizing that we all should be considered equal in this country, regardless of gender."
I will be back later in the week with PART ONE of a TWO-PART blog post collaboration with my #SABestie, Katy Hamm, on the healing power of music.
Be prepared!
Be well.
-Craig.
