Tuesday 19 November is International Men's Day.
Does it really have to be?
Why did it ever come into existence?
Aren't ALL days of the year men's days? Maybe we're wrong about that.
In this "The World of Sofie XL", Sofie Lemaire and the most important experts on masculinity in 2024 will analyse this. Every hour, a new topic will be introduced by a well-known panel of men: Jaouad Alloul, Aaron Blommaert, Dirk Draulans, Jan Van Rompaey, Thomas Vanderveken.
This panel will try to find answers to a number of questions together.
Is there a need for International Men's Day?
Can you still be a 'normal' man?
Do men still dare to seduce?
Are young men really becoming more conservative again?
Do men talk about sex with their friends?
Why do so many young guys prefer to go to the gym than to a café?
Why do boys have a harder time in education?
Do 'real' men really never cry!?
What does it mean to be a man today?
Can they still figure it out for themselves?
Maybe after years of emancipation it is time for some ‘mancipation’?
What kind of men do they see around them and what kind of man do they prefer to be?
