Welcome to another episode of The Prop G Pod. We typically share an episode of Raging Moderates on Tuesdays, but the dog is traveling. So in place of our regularly scheduled programming, we're sharing an episode of The Gray Area, a podcast hosted by Sean Illing, a journalist at Vox Media and the co-author of The Paradox of Democracy, Free Speech, Open Media, and Perilous Persuasion.

The episode we're sharing today features yours truly. We discuss the state of young men, including the struggles men are facing today, how parents can navigate the current moment, and how they can And the challenges Sean and I each faced as young men. So with that, here's the gray area. Are men okay?

What's going on with men? There's a growing body of evidence that men are falling behind in education, in the labor market. And when you look at the numbers on drug overdoses and deaths by suicide, it's pretty bleak. And it's not just a problem for men. It's a problem for women and for our culture and our politics.

The fact is, we have an alarming number of lonely, alienated, and disaffected young men in this country. And whatever the reasons for that, and however justified they may or may not be, this is something we have to deal with. You can see this playing out on the political front. Donald Trump made explicit appeals to men and it worked. He gained ground with men, especially younger men.

155.834 - 184.327 Host

And not just white men, but also Black and Latino men. For me, personally, the sort of masculinity that Trump models isn't appealing. I think he's a bully. I think he's a liar. And he projects a kind of strength that's divorced from any sense of restraint or obligation to other people. But the fact that he appeals to so many men says something important about this cultural moment.
