There was a time in the '60s early '70s when male affection in public prevailed over the handshake. We also got a glimpse into men's liberation. One flank of the men's lib scene was patriarchal led by writer Robert Bly and his book "Iron John." The other flank embraced male affection and the emerging gay scene that we refer to today as LGBTQIA.
"As interest in feminist thinking and practice has waned, there has been even less focus on the plight of men than in the heyday of the feminist movement. This lack of interest does not change the fact that only a feminist vision that embraces feminist masculinity, that loves boys and men and demands on their behalf every right that we desire for girls and women, can renew men in our society. Feminist thinking teaches us all, males especially, how to love justice and freedom in ways that foster and affirm life. Clearly, we need new strategies, new theories, guides that will show us how to create a world where feminist masculinity thrives." - from "The Will to Change" by bell hooks
