TheWillToChange

The purpose of this video blog is to explore the definition of manhood. As men, we feel that we have been conditioned to behave a certain way. As young boys, we learn what are general accepted behaviors for boys. We learn that it is not ok to cry or to show any emotions. As young boys we learn that we have to be tough and strong. It is not good to show signs of weakness. We receive these messages from our parents, the schools, the media, sports and by the heroes we idolize as children. Our purpose here is to explore these learned dynamics and to begin a dialogue that asks the question; what does it mean to be a man? We do not pretend to know the answers and we do not think that there is a wrong or right answer to this question. We purely want to explore what this means to us as two men.
The goal of this project is to create a space where the topic of manhood can be explored, discussed, and deconstructed.
