Conor Beaton: 我认为长达数十年的妖魔化男性的运动是导致男性衰落的重要原因之一。社会普遍将男性视为所有问题的根本原因,这种指责和妖魔化导致男性感到不被需要,从而退出社会并开始衰落。这种现象在政治、人际关系和个人发展等多个层面都有体现。例如,在选举后,人们常常指责男性决定了选举结果,并认为这是厌女行为。在恋爱关系中,如果男人觉得不被需要,他们也会选择退出。此外,社会对男性角色的刻板印象和限制,以及对男性气概的负面评价,都使得男性在追求个人发展时面临更大的挑战。我认为,我们需要停止散布男人是所有问题的根源,没有男人世界会更好的说法。相反,我们应该为男性创造更积极的愿景和机会,鼓励他们承担责任,发展技能,并为社会做出贡献。同时,我们也应该鼓励男性去冒险,从失败中学习,并发展出辨别好坏风险的能力。只有这样,我们才能帮助男性克服困境,重拾自信,并在社会中发挥积极作用。 Conor Beaton: 我也认为色情内容对年轻男性的心理健康有负面影响,因为它扭曲了他们对性的认知,并使他们难以在现实世界中建立健康的人际关系。此外,社会为年轻人创造的反风险环境,例如直升机式育儿和低风险的性满足获取方式,也阻碍了他们发展风险承担能力。因此,我们需要鼓励年轻人去冒险,从失败中学习,并发展出辨别好坏风险的能力。只有这样,我们才能帮助他们克服困境,重拾自信,并在社会中发挥积极作用。
