Australian artist Luke Humphris has a deeply painful personal experience of the damage toxic masculinity can cause and has made a powerful and eye-opening comic about it. Australia has, especially in rural areas, a hyper-masculine culture which can discourage guys from opening up and speaking honestly with other each other about their issues and needs, even though organizations such as Men’s Shed are doing a great deal to change that. Luke now lives in Toronto, Canada, having selected to do what lots of young Aussies do and go out to explore the world.
Luke, through his comic, represents ‘toxic masculinity’ not as women trying to ‘feminize’ men out of existence nor as masculine traits being inherently harmful, as the extremes in the debate often portray it. He views it as the backward attitudes which limit the ways that so-called ‘real men’ can express themselves, stifling frank discussion about critical issues while promoting an outwards show of silent ‘strength.’

The idea of the unemotional male is very recent. Its social engineering from the 50s via CIA commissioned teen magazines
ReplyDeleteI was not sure if love spell could help but here is my story:
ReplyDeleteI have been in a relationship with my then ex (we broke up for 3 months) since 2015. It was a happy and very active relationship with lots of fun and travelling. We love each other endlessly and we shared a lot. His family was my family and my family his.
Few months back he started being controlling and possessive:
I told him that I don’t feel comfortable with his new behavior, he apologized and promised to work on himself. But he failed on his promises, this time it escalated to him being manipulative. He accuses me of cheating on him at work. Eventually, I’ll be the one apologizing for something I didn’t do. I broke up when I couldn’t take it any longer.
I got a stranger email address from a website that changed my story:
I asked the stranger for help to fix my relationship, I told him that my problem was that I am still in love with this guy and I know he loves me too but he has a huge ego, his ego is enormous. I know I am the one who did the breaking up but my heart was hoping for him to say to me ‘I’m sorry baby, I apologize for how I have made you feel these past years, I will seek help and fix myself so that we can fix us’
The stranger is Dr. Wakina, his email; dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com
Dr. Wakina showered his healing powers to us through his powerful love spell. Our relationship was fixed as he provided the much-needed help to us. Our destiny was changed for good.
