I have been thinking about how difficult it is sometimes to be a man and be in touch with how you feel.

I have asked a close friend of mine and colleague to write a short 12 session blog on some of the problems and issues that come up for him in todays society as a man. I've promised him it will be confidential and that i will make sure its anonymised. This too raises its own questions but thats for another day.

Please be respectful as he has been very open with how he feels about being a man in todays society.

Myself and John hope that you enjoy some of what he writes and also hope it brings some light onto an often difficult to talk about subject.

The first blog post comes today then each Sunday. Feel free to share if you would like to as it may resonate with someone and provide them with some support.
