Sport culture shapes so much of how we understand masculinity — strength, stoicism, triumph, and the pressure to “play on” no matter what.
In this episode, we chat about moments that push back against that script, from athletes using big stages to speak about mental health, to teammates openly showing affection for one another. We unpack why it’s not as simple as telling men to “just open up,” and why healthy expressions of masculinity can still attract backlash. The conversation then widens to the male hormonal cycle, before diving into emerging sex and relationship trends like scrolling social media during intimacy and declining condom use in young people.
