We're Telling Boys They’re The Problem — with Gautam Raju (Movember)

Gautam Raju leads global policy and advocacy at Movember, sitting at the point where men's health research meets government and the algorithm. We get into why the word "masculinity" can shut a conversation down before it starts, the WhatsApp video that stopped him in his tracks — titled "how to ensure your three-year-old boy is not toxic" — and why two-thirds of young men are watching masculinity influencers regularly. We also cover Movember's push for mental health checks for new dads, a confronting stat about the health system missing men before suicide, and Gautam's own experience moving through that system as a patient. This one sits with the discomfort rather than resolving it.
