i think society just expect boys to figure it out. The culture of silence surrounding the male body is really disturbing, especially considering that people would rather sexualize these experiences rather than educate.

It simply sucks, and I never really thought about it until I read this piece.

Brilliant job as always Emmanuel

There comes a time in a man's life where it imperative that he just sits in silence and be, obsessing over thoughts that life hasn't allowed him time to introspect on. He has to learn about himself for himself.

K. Lamar's "been feelin' this way since I was 16, came to my senses" line comes to mind now.

Culture says, for each man his own. We nod, OK.
