WHY IT'S HARDER FOR MEN // Double Standards of the 21st Century

Artem Karpavichus is a practicing psychologist, Master's degree (Department of Psychotherapy and Psychological Counseling), and author. 📌 My special materials: https://karpavichus.com https://karpavichus.com https://karpavichus.com 📕 MY BOOK "Breaking Up, You Can't Stay" (AST Publishing House) is available at any bookstore, on WB, and on Litres. https://www.litres.ru/book/artem-karp... Are you familiar with the phrase: "Men aren't what they used to be"? Who is a real man today: the traditional breadwinner, the knight, the fully involved father, or the single man? In today's world, the demands on the male role are more contradictory than ever. Over the past 120 years, men have rapidly lost their absolute power. While in 1900, a man had complete legal and domestic control over a woman's life (from issuing a passport to determining the fate of children in divorce), he also bore absolute responsibility for her. Throughout the 20th century, a natural process of equalization of rights has been underway. And today, a woman can be anything from a housewife to a president. So what's left for a man? In this video, we'll take a detailed look at the phenomenon of the modern masculinity crisis. I'll discuss why modern men find themselves caught in a tight split between traditional expectations (to acquire resources and be strong) and new social roles (to be an empathic partner and an involved father). You'll learn why women today have it even easier in terms of self-realization, and how political advertising in Europe vividly exposes these double standards. And, as always, at the end of the lecture, I'll offer clear, practical (and quite unconventional!) advice: how a man can find his identity today, find a healthy balance between career and family, and why we all just need to... wait a little. Enjoy watching!
