Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love by bell hooks — a systems-level examination of how patriarchal culture shapes male identity, emotional life, and violence.
Rather than treating masculinity as an individual personality trait, the book frames it as a social system that teaches boys to suppress emotion, deny vulnerability, and equate dominance with strength. hooks argues that this emotional disconnection produces widespread suffering among men, often expressed through isolation, anger, and harm to others.
By tracing how patriarchy conditions boys to abandon emotional integrity in exchange for social approval, the book reveals a masculinity crisis rooted not in weakness, but in the denial of love. hooks proposes an alternative vision — a feminist masculinity grounded in accountability, emotional literacy, and the practice of love as an ethical and political act.
Rather than assigning blame to individual men, this episode treats masculinity as a systems problem — shaped by family structures, cultural narratives, and incentives that punish vulnerability while rewarding control.
