Upcoming video ideas....
Added 2023-08-12 20:40:43 +0000 UTCSo I know I just fed you all, but I'm thinking about the next moves...
I wanted to watch Heartstopper and give some thoughts on season 2 as a Patreon video next month... I think I could reasonably do a bonus video once a month and they're fun?
As for a main channel video, I know this might be a trite topic, but I'm super interested in men, masculinity, feminism for men, the "crises" in male loneliness, etc. It's been talked about to death on Twitter but it just makes me angry how little nuance these topics get, ESPECIALLY as a transguy who very much experiences the negative effects of patriarchy as a man and who knows what it's like to grow up socialized as female. It's hard to identify as a man knowing that manhood has been historically defined as the violent "universal" of our society... And so what is it that actually constitutes my manhood? I'm sure this is not just something transmen experience but that all men experience to an extent, and the reasons for this may be able to inform, not just this nebulous thing we call "men's issues", but the strategies against patriarchy as a whole.
I'm currently in the reading and watching stages for all this so just some preliminary thoughts and i would like to hear yours!! Hope you're having a good weekend :)

Per your past work exploring maleness and the structural insanity of being male, I think a revisit and reexamination of some of those conflicts would be very appreciated and useful.
