It’s almost funny — if it weren’t so revealing. Whenever tactics are highlighted about the harmful dynamics or systemic inequalities that women face, certain men’s responses follow a script as predictable as sunrise. Dismiss, deflect, deny, shift blame — these tactics reveal not just a refusal to engage meaningfully, but an active effort to maintain control over the narrative.Why do men so often resort to these same predictable responses? From dismissing women’s concerns as exaggerated to weaponizing their lack of empathy and blaming women for their own struggles, these patterns tell a much larger story about the dynamics of power and resistance to change.In this episode, Lynn unpacks the most common tactics men use to respond to discussions about patriarchy, inequality, and systemic issues. We’ll explore why these responses are not random, but rather calculated efforts to maintain dominance and avoid accountability. From emotional dismissal to reframing arguments, the underlying intent is clear but you decide!Join us as we break down the script men seem to follow — and examine why it’s time to stop letting these patterns derail conversations about progress and equality.

What if the very system that promises men power and privilege is the same one that traps them?While patriarchy is often seen as a system that benefits men, its harsh demands and narrow definitions of masculinity also cause profound harm. Men are taught to suppress emotions, fear vulnerability, and uphold societal norms that ultimately leave them isolated and unfulfilled. Yet, deconstructing patriarchy can feel like stepping into uncharted territory — a journey that risks losing privilege, relationships, and the identity they’ve been conditioned to embrace.Why is it so difficult for men to escape this cycle? The emotional suppression, fear of rejection, relentless competition, and pressure to conform all keep men bound to a system that hurts them as much as it does women. And with few safe spaces or support systems to guide them, breaking free seems almost impossible.In this episode, Lynn explores the complexities of patriarchy's grip on men and the immense courage required to dismantle it. We’ll uncover why men feel stuck, what makes this struggle so deeply entrenched, and how they can begin to navigate a path toward emotional freedom and authentic connection.Are men ready to confront the truth about the patriarchy — and themselves?
