The Gallagher brothers were part of the lad '90s culture — work hard, play hard. As they prepare to return with a sold-out tour and the global political stage shifts to the right, are we witnessing a return to retro-male values?
The article from MSN discusses the impact of "lad culture" on men's mental health, exploring whether this culture acts as a gateway to toxicity and harmful doctrines. It highlights how traditional expectations of masculinity, such as stoicism and emotional suppression, can lead to mental health issues among men. The piece delves into how societal norms often discourage men from expressing vulnerability or seeking help, potentially exacerbating problems like depression, anxiety, and loneliness. It also touches on the role of media and peer pressure in perpetuating these norms, suggesting that the glorification of aggressive or hyper-masculine behaviors can contribute to a toxic environment. The article calls for a cultural shift towards more inclusive and supportive attitudes towards men's mental health, advocating for environments where men feel safe to discuss their feelings and seek support without fear of judgment or ridicule.
