Masculinities: new ways of being human

Interview with Erick Fisher Albiach, journalist and sexologist

What does the word masculinity?

Masculinities are different ways of being human. There is only one way to be. Each man must invent how you want to be rethinking the stereotypical model that until now have of how to be a man.

Why is it important for men to rethink their way of being human if, say, they played the better part of the story?

We can not tell who touched the best or worst. You can not compare, they are different domains. What I can say is that men are in crisis and do not know.

In our part of history there are many impositions and prohibitions, one of the most important is the inability to express our emotions. A man should not mourn or do not get carried away with your sex life erotic, always thinking they should have some performance to prove this or that, without letting his emotions and real feelings flow. This also happens with the family, men do not know how to express in the affective, which causes problems and frustrations.

The emotional level not function does not effective relationships with partner, family, the people who surround you up with friends.

Tired of trying to be strong and brave?

Everything really tired when you do not behave as you really are, but as I have said should be. When you realize that you damage people who have close or when you yourself do not know how to express yourself.

How is it that arises to rethink this being men? Is it from feminism?

Yes, the feminist struggle is what opened the door for men to seek his humanity. Masculinities that emerge from women seek gender equity, so men should, with the new company, to build the sharing out of the differences, respect for diversity.

This movement has been going on the French Revolution.

From my experience, I think many men are not yet ready for the changes that women in different fields and in economic, professional, social, family, etc.. Do you think a change will be realized male in search of a society with gender equality?

Yes, the models begin to change. You have to work with men from his own interest from the individual to each person under his being. It should rethink stereotypes and power structures.

We work with a project called "Ulysses" with adolescent boys because at this stage of human development, we believe our work timely, since the personality is being built. "Ulysses" is the search for identity man and woman in power.

What awaits us with a change in the model of masculinity with the masculinity?

We expect to enjoy through diversity relationships, sex, with our sons and daughters. Enjoy our life as individuals without having to be role models, stereotypes of men. That awaits us, enjoy our masculinity with affection.

I stay with this idea, I like. I prefer to share my feelings and thoughts with men who know themselves, without seeking to be who they are. The pursuit of our being is important and when the men broke from the mold.

I know that not all men are equal, because there is no repeatable individual, I also know that men like Erick Fisher engage in the pursuit of gender equity because they understand that individuals can not be full if their partner or themselves are involved in the "ought" and not really who they are. May people who read this page to share with others his new vision of male masculinity and create from the affections.
