Workshop: Struggling (with) masculinity

by Flo Schinnerl, accompanied by Florent Golfier-Brechmann from tYhle.

This workshop offers a space for critical reflection, learning, and collective growth.

Struggling (with) masculinities tries to answer bell hooks’ call for “guides that will show us how to create a world where feminist masculinity thrives”. When men engage with feminism, they put themselves into the ambivalent position of trying to get rid of their own privileges, and into a privileged position within the feminist struggle that must be approached carefully. Together we try to navigate these difficult waters by looking at theory (and critique) around feminism and masculinity, reflecting and exchanging on our own position in the patriarchal system and developing actions to struggle towards a more gender-equitable future. The workshop is held in the frame of the artistic research process of the Maminic project.

This event is open to all genders. We look forward to learning together and creating a space where diverse perspectives can be shared. See you there!
