The Briefing with Jen Psaki · MS NOW Exclusive | Hope Comes Home: Inside the Obama Presidential Center - Part 2 · 20 Jun 2026 podcast

We're at a time when there's a lot of talk about what it means to be a man.

It's all out there.

There's a lot of mansplaining going on.

And what you feel in those conversations is what we understand is that men struggle just as much as we do in figuring out who they are and where to find place.

And I've said this time and time again.

I don't have sons.

You do.

I know a lot of my friends' sons.

I love these young men.

But we've done a great job in our lifetime of expanding the possibilities of what women and girls can be.

We've worked hard to redefine that and to say, you know, you can –

take home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, right?

You can do it all.

You can be a mom, you can have emotion, you can be tough, you can box, you can run, you can be strong, right?

You can be a musician.

But during that time,

I don't think we've done an equal justice to opening the aperture for what our men and boys can be.

We've talked about this.

There's still a very narrow definition of what it means to be a man, and it's still got to win, got to be tough.

Got to be strong.
