What Defines You As A Man | FRIDAY FIELD NOTES

Join Ryan Michler as he explores the distinction between masculinity and manliness, a conversation that goes beyond mere semantics. Drawing insights from our social media followers, he discusses how masculinity often encompasses inherent traits like dominance and competitiveness, while manliness is about applying these traits through cultural, moral, and ethical lenses.

By sharing various perspectives and definitions, Ryan illustrates that masculinity is a birthright, but manliness must be earned through responsible and positive actions. This conversation encourages a broader discussion on how men can effectively cultivate these attributes to benefit themselves and others.
