They're not necessarily bad, but when they become the paradigm from where we are operating from as a baseline, which I would say our culture really does value things that are sort of wounded masculine qualities or ways of being, then they become distortions. They really are us operating with our wounds versus in that conscious space of ’how do I want to respond based on what is coming up for me’ and ’what is the truth of how I want to show up in this moment?’ ” - Dené Logan“As grateful as we all are for the modern feminist movement, I think there's a way that what we were really taught to embrace was a lot of wounded masculine energy. That, we can do everything that men can do. We can show up and work like men and make ourselves sick. Productivity at all costs. All these things that if we really think about them aren't necessarily healthy qualities for anyone. But in order for us to sort of be competitive in the workplace and feel like we have a seat at the table, so many of us were conditioned to reject what would be some of our healthy feminine characteristics like trust in life, and receptivity , and our willingness to be vulnerable. So for a lot of us, those things can be really hard for us to recalibrate into stepping into or accepting within ourselves.” - Dené Logan“So many things in our society are just a reaction to this fear of the feminine essence. The feminine spirit and so much of what we're experiencing day to day is rooted in that fear. We're just so terrified of it.” - Monique R. Shields“Wounded masculinity is basically a kind of a fear based state, it cuts you off from creativity and that's what the healthy feminine is all about- creativity and being in your creative mode.” - Monique R.
