Society & Culture
In this second episode, we unpack how boys internalize masculinity through culture, systems, and early experiences, drawing from the TV series Adolescence.
Our Riddlers, Gagandeep Singh and Kartik Shah, explore:
- What does it mean to be a man today?
- How did masculinity become tied to dominance and disconnection?
- What can help boys cross the bridge to a more integrated, healthy manhood?
Together, they navigate the evolving meanings of manhood and hold space with tenderness for the audience to journey alongside.
