EP 24: What Do Men Want?

“Men and women exist. Occasionally, we even like each other. We exist because of these two simple truths.” These are the opening lines of a powerful new book that dives into the crisis in contemporary heterosexuality. It’s been called a “feminist defence of masculinity,” and it is a clear-headed and compassionate look at where we’ve gone wrong. Nina Power is a British writer, philosopher, and fellow Substacker. She’s also a senior editor at the new American journal of radical politics, Compact Magazine. Nina Power’s latest book is What Do Men Want? Masculinity and Its Discontents. She joins Tara for a conversation about how we think and talk about men – and how we might begin to heal the rift between the sexes. You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com
