I think I missed #internationalMensDay but I've been thinking a lot lately about male mentorship, not the business kind, but coaching peers and young men on emotional literacy and interpersonal skills.

There's been a lot of talk lately about women not doing #emotionalLabour (valid!) but it leaves a gap, with no history or cultural infrastructure for men to learn and build capacity.

Fellas, hit me with moments of man-on-man emotional mentoring. I know it's out there.

Serious post, please boost...

On #InternationalMensDay here's your periodic reminder, fellow AMAB & prostate carrying people who are over 50:

Go see your doctor. Don't put it off. Ask for a DRE or a PSA test. Yes, DRE means a finger up your bum, get over it.

They probably won't find anything wrong, but if they do then early intervention will help you avoid the situation I'm in. PSA units should be 3-5; mine was 1206 and my prostate about the size of an orange.

Stage 4 cancer is no joke.

Happy #InternationalMensDay to my fellow dudes!

Great opportunity to reflect on our shared privilege. We all need to work together to address toxic masculinity and gender inequality that are at the root of so many of today's world's problems.

We need to learn to call each other out, just saying "not cool, man" can make a big difference.

And we also need to embrace being vulnerable and not be afraid to ask other men for help. And be there for other men seeking help.

It's not the responsibility of other gender groups to provide us with free emotional labor.

A good vibe to remember on #InternationalMensDay. You don't have to carry the world on your shoulders. You can be held and loved for you just being you.
