"Man up" is a phrase that has been used, detrimentally, by men to shame men who aren't masculine enough and to motivate them to become more manly. I want to re-define the meaning of this phrase to help us take masculinity to the next level. I want men to not be so limited by traditional masculinity, but to live in the freedom that is embracing their whole self.
Welcome to the ManUp Blog. This is where I write about topics related to masculinity, men, mental health and culture.
Enjoy, and please feel free to leave comments letting me know what you think!
