Tough Guise

whatpercentageofviolenceiscommittedbymen

“Most men aren’t violent, but 90% of violent crimes are committed by men. The question is why? For too long we’ve identified masculine strength with violence. But true strength comes from challenging the myth that being a real man means putting up a false front, disrespecting others, and engaging in violent and self-destructive behavior. Let’s lose the tough guise and start being real men.” [From the picture to the right. Below is a clip from the film, Tough Guise featuring Jackson Katz. and produced by Sut Jhally.]
