“I’m in control,” the fiction of autonomy tells us. Masculinity is not a problem of men, but a social norm, a collective matter. It has ceased to be seen as a thing or attribute that men possess, and has become a set of practices embedded in gender relations. Success is the biographical compass of masculinity; paradoxically, men spend much of their lives failing, far from the trajectories projected by normative models. This book brings to the table the need to perforate masculinities so they become more vulnerable, more dependent, and open to being affected. That is why it proposes reorganizing our social institutions so that vulnerability becomes a priority, since care can be one of the areas with the greatest potential to practice other masculinities. To achieve this, we will have to build more livable societies for all people. This book is an essential conversation between masculinity, the future, and hope, an invitation to imagine freer collective paths.
