Men Need Men (2019) ― a documentary about men's groups
Men Need Men is a 2019 documentary about men’s groups that come together to talk about personal subjects.
Seven interviewees provide a ‘behind the scenes’ look into how men’s groups operate, and why men find understanding and comradeship within this type of forum.
With views from the East and West, from the young and old, we learn how members come to trust one another and speak without the fear of being shamed, as they confess and confront, validate and support.
In particular, the documentary looks at how men’s groups affect love relationships. The interviewees report gaining clarity and stability and not needing as much assurance from their partners.
Specific attention also goes to conflict. As men feel safe expressing anger unapologetically, they process forgotten wounds and thereby find acceptance and kindness.

For men who resonate with this look up the Mankind Project. We hold men's groups in 23 countries and have been around since 1985.

Yes, actively involved in the USA, but covid has messed things up---just now getting back to initiation weekends.
Powerful stuff. Good message.
I found an awesome book that was discarded called “Circle of Men” by Bill Kauth. I will study and implement what I learn from this resource, and continue the necessity for Men’s support groups, because they’re needed now more than ever in this age. Thank you for this video. Much respect, to all of the facilitators of men’s support groups worldwide. God bless you all.🙂🙏🏾

@@thebareessentials life is suffering. In finding meaning and purpose, we are able to shoulder the burdens of life and trudge along. Life can be terrible, but as we lie awake at night knowing we gave our best towards our purpose, we are given relief

omg so good. As a queer man struggling with my idea of masculinity and the common ways of boys bottleing up emotions, Ive seen the need in myself for mens groups. But never have been ready. Too many blocks in the way that said its only for straight guys or I shouldnt need these things to feel good about myself. Thanks for putting this out. I think Im really close to joining a mens group. i think itll really help me. And becasue Im saying help and not fix and meaning it, I beleive Im on the right path. Thanks again for making this video

I'm a queer trans man and I've been in men's groups. It was scary at first, but the other men were really supportive of me

Dude, join a group! Men in these groups are humbling themselves and seeking help. Admitting they don't always know what the next move is. You'll fit right in. I feel terrible that you have these feelings. You are going to find lots of men who have struggled with their identity or potential sexuality
Men need men
At 25 mins i felt that.
Newb. Thanks for that at 33:18. Most handy for stage I am slamming into now. The prejudice against me in our case, seems to culturally condone my wife's entire refusal to talk which drove me become louder at her for seeming to ignore and reject my views --- but --- not in words. The court will not look at the premediation or gas lighting or obtuse indifference.

I think the guy @ 13.34 , who basically condensed religious Faith to "a thought", was GROSSLY overlooking the power of the immortal Spirit. Without this, Man is just an animal that funtions by logic. However, through deep Prayer, meditation, and considering the wisdom of God, over decades of moral life, we Men can actually see light at the end of the tunnel. "Try to get to the point in YOUR life where you can feel the Holy Spirit moving inside of you" is a real thing. I hope this helps someone.
Its so f...ing amaing. I do exactly the same thing. This is what I want to do, on my own, the same idea was born, and I would like to realize ... I would like to translate subtitles into Polish. www.meskagrupawarszawa.pl Warsaw group.

I have been doing "mens work" for many years (30) but we need to get past the middle class white male and engage with the rest of the male population on our planet. Get out, engage outside of the cozy safe rooms you meet in and try to understand what makes all men "tick". Unfortunately, this video comes off more as a how can we save our white species and less of an embrace of all that is common and human in all men. Finally, engage young men. Go to a college level and pull them in.
im so happy to be a sigma. i font need any of you or anyone for that matter. well maybe a dr once in a while because i am a man and we get hurt often.
Im looking for anti women's group. Any help?
