Bock

Rituals of masculinity, pressure on potency, overstepping boundaries – being a man is in crisis; the buzzwords of toxic masculinity are making the rounds just like that of the old white man. Katja Lewina wanted to understand what is happening with men, and especially: how they really feel in bed. She set out to talk to men about sexuality, desires, and secrets, engaging with regular guys as well as experts: from orgasm coaches to priests, from transgender men to urologists, from couples therapists to philosophers.

In "Bock," she reveals the many fears and insecurities associated with being a man and how socialization and societal expectations influence men's lives. The end of patriarchy cannot be proclaimed by women alone, which is why this book is urgently needed to dismantle stereotypes and present alternatives.
