Listening to this podcast made me realize how much men are also expected to fulfill a specific role in society, sexually. I never thought much about the fact that men could be interested in pursuing other things sexually, such an anal pleasure, regardless of their sexuality. It just goes to show that there is so much stuff we can continue to educate ourselves on and I am so happy that these podcasts do just that. I just can’t help but think about how hard of a conversation that must be from the male’s side, has anyone successfully had this talk with their partner?

It was so interesting that masculinity hasn’t evolved in the past twenty years. It made me really reflect on the conversations Ive had with my male-identifying friends and the discourse online about masculinity and pleasure. There’s always that pressure to be more masculine, and when they want to express their feelings they’re shunned. I feel like the younger generation is becoming more expressive with their wants and needs and doing and wearing things that they want without shame. I’m really excited for the changes they’ll bring to modern society

Throughout the years I’ve always heard my male-friends confide me the insecurities they had when performing in bed because of the extremely high standards society puts on them (from when to start their sexual life to even what to expect from it) and it’s so interesting to hear about how men too are interested in looking to experiment yet they still won’t allow themselves to ask for more because of how not “manly” this new thing to try may seem to others. I love how the podcast is helping to break this stigma because men too deserve a chance to experience pleasure fully. .

I learned so much listening to this episode!
I always thought about the fact that men could be more open sexually but anal pleasure it’s so stigmatized within straight men. So I think that this episode is so important for men to understand a bit more about their own sexual pleasure and how can they just enjoy the ride.

The thing that I learned about myself listening to this episode is that growing up I thought being masculine meant that a boy had to be tough and strong.I now understand that that isn’t always true. The thing that I learned about culture was that masculinity is boys and men have to be tough, make more money, be more successful, and teach their sons that being masculine is the one thing that will guide them through life.The thing that surprised me most is that men and boys are taught that their only role in life is to be tough and manly. The way that I can apply what I learned to my life is to teach my future child that masculinity is making sure that you show the world what an amazing and caring human being he could be.
