Is society stealing men's vitality as they age?

In this episode, we delve into a powerful monologue by Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander who argues that societal pressures force men to abandon playfulness, mistaking it for childishness.

We explore how this "psychological aging" leads to physical decline, loss of mobility, and a diminished sense of true masculinity.

Alexander challenges ageist norms, advocating for men to reclaim their playful nature to maintain health, strength, and a more authentic, vigorous life.

We discuss the distinction between playfulness and childishness, the societal pressures against male playfulness, the physical consequences of abandoning play, and how embracing physical vitality can redefine masculinity.
