Justice isn't about payback—it's about redemption.Romans 12:19 reminds us to leave vengeance to God, but that's easier said than done. When we're wronged, the desire for immediate justice can be overwhelming. Yet, God's discipline is rooted in mercy, shaping us for our good.In this podcast, Angie and Susie explore how surrendering control and trusting His process can transform our pain into purpose. Join us as we dive into what it truly means to let go and let God work.Romans 12:19 (NIV)Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.https://livesteadyon.com/https://susiecrosby.com/https://www.logos.com/https://enduringword.com/https://www.wordhippo.com/https://www.biblegateway.com/https://www.blueletterbible.org/Gottlob Schrenk, “Ἐκδικέω, Ἔκδικος, Ἐκδίκησις,” ed.

Does surrendering to God feel like losing control?Angie and Susie dive into James 4:7 to challenge the idea that submission is a sign of weakness. In reality, true strength comes not from gripping tighter—but from letting go. Join them as they uncover how surrendering to God empowers us to stand firm, resist the enemy, and walk boldly in the freedom of His authority.James 4:7 (NIV)“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”https://livesteadyon.com/To connect with Susie:https://susiecrosby.com/Facebook: @‌susiecrosbyauthorInstagram: @‌susiecrosbySusie's devotionals, “Lighthearted” and “Just One Word: 90 Devotions to Invite Jesus In” are available on Amazon.https://www.logos.com/https://enduringword.com/https://www.wordhippo.com/https://www.biblegateway.com/https://www.blueletterbible.org/Gerhard Delling, Gerhard Kittel, Geoffrey W.

Story of the Week (DR):Berkshire board names Greg Abel as CEO, Buffett to remain chairWarren Buffett says he'll propose Greg Abel take over as Berkshire Hathaway CEO at year-endWarren Buffett makes surprise announcement: He's stepping down as Berkshire Hathaway CEOOpenAI backs off push to become for-profit companyIn a nutshell, with help from its chatbot: “OpenAI has restructured into a hybrid model with a nonprofit parent company, OpenAI Inc., and a for-profit subsidiary now called a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). This shift allows for investment while keeping a focus on its mission of developing AGI for the benefit of humanity. The change responds to previous criticism about reducing nonprofit oversight.”OpenAI's nonprofit mission fades further into the rearviewSam Altman urges lawmakers against regulations that could ‘slow down' U.S. in AI race against ChinaKohl's CEO Fired After Investigation Finds 'Highly Unusual' Business Deal with Former Romantic PartnerKohl's CEO Ashley Buchanan was fired after an internal investigation revealed he violated the company's conflict-of-interest policies. The probe found that Buchanan directed business to a former romantic partner, Chandra Holt, who is the CEO of Beyond Inc. and founder of Incredibrew. Holt secured a multimillion-dollar consulting deal with Kohl's under unusually favorable terms, which Buchanan failed to disclose.As a result, Buchanan was dismissed for cause, forfeiting equity awards and required to repay a portion of his $2.5 million signing bonus.This marks the third CEO departure at Kohl's in just three years, highlighting ongoing leadership instability amid declining sales.Proxy Firms Split on Harley-Davidson Board Shake-Up MMGlass Lewis= Withhold; ISS = What's happening at Harley exactly?We have a fun twist at the proxy cage match between Harley Davidson and H Partners, who are 9% shareholders and have started a withhold vote campaign against long-tenured directors Jochen Zeitz, Thomas Linebarger, and Sara Levinson: Glass Lewis says “withhold” but ISS says “support”?Through lackluster reasoning based on hunches and not performance analytics, ISS revealed, without satire, that "[T]here are compelling reasons to believe that as a group [the targeted directors] still have a perspective that can be valuable” and, in discussing the candidacy of departing CEO Jochen Zeitz: “[I]t appears that his time in the role has been more positive than negative, which makes it hard to argue that his vote on a successor is worthless.”Testimony in House Hearing: “Exposing the Proxy Advisory Cartel: How ISS & Glass Lewis Influence Markets”A 2015 study found that 25 percent of institutional investors vote “indiscriminately” with ISS [1].In 2016, a study estimated that a negative recommendation from ISS leads to a 25-percentage point reduction in voting support for say-on-pay proposals [2].A 2018 study demonstrated that a negative recommendation from ISS was associated with a reduction in support of 17 percentage points for equity-plan proposals, 18 points for uncontested director elections, and 27 points for say-on-pay [3].In 2021, a study examining “robo-voting”—the practice of fund managers voting in lockstep with the recommendations of ISS—identified 114 financial institutions managing $5 trillion in assets that automated their votes in a manner aligned with ISS recommendations 99.5% of the time [4].A 2022 study provided further evidence that institutional investors are highly sensitive to an opposing recommendation from a proxy advisory firm. Opposition from ISS was associated with a 51 percent difference in institutional voting support compared with only a 2 percent difference among retail investors [5].During the 12 months ending June 30, 2024, negative recommendations from the two proxy advisory firms were associated with (1) a 17-percentage point difference in support for directors in uncontested elections at the S&P 500 (96.9% with the firms' support vs. 79.7% without); (2) a 35-percentage point gap for say-on-pay proposals (92.8% vs. 58.0%); and (3) a 36-percentage point difference for shareholder proposals (42.4% vs. 6.6%)Why Leo XIV?

To avoid them being called scrips, which were outlawed in the US in 1938 but still used anyway through the 1960s, Musk will list them on crypto exchanges that can be used to trade for dollars (but are totally worthless). Eventually, so indebted to the space plantation and Musk, there is a new renaissance of “resistance music” (a la “We Shall Overcome” and “Sixteen Tons”) with a song ranking number 1 in the US by the end of 2026.

Brim and Mr. Greer are back at it again. Apart from all the usual shenanigans, the gang chats about everything pop culture with all the trimmings including why Brim had an uneasy visit to Disneyland, why someone would want to be reincarnated as a Disney duck or cat, and a new Disney park in Abu Dhabi. The cast talks about a guy named Oliver who was diagnosed with a rare disease that could eventually paralyze him, so he quit his career, and is now sailing from Oregon to Hawaii with his cat Phoenix. The crew also discusses how Zuck is currently in a battle with the FTC, how they are claiming he owns a social media monopoly with Meta, the evolution of social media and a ride down MySpace Lane. The cast chats about the Thunderbolts and how they are the new Avengers, how Fantastic Four is possibly looking good, how AI is taking over everything, and where SAG AFTRA is in the video game strike. They discuss University Pizza Company, as well as GTA being moved to 2026 and gaming updates we hate paying for. The crew chats about entertainment news, opinions and other cool stuff and things.

     Satan promotes uncontrolled anger. Paul wrote, “Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and do not give the devil an opportunity” (Eph 4:26-27). By itself, anger is not sinful. Even God gets angry (Num 25:4; Deut 9:8, 20; Jer 4:8). Human anger is a natural response to an injustice, real or imagined. We get angry because we feel someone has wronged us, and the personal scales of justice need to be corrected. Ideally, this happens when the offender comes and apologizes and seeks forgiveness, or makes restitution for damage. However, we cannot always control other people's thoughts, words, or actions, but we can control how we respond. Paul tells us not to let anger last beyond the day. If we let anger fester, then by our choice we give the devil an opportunity to turn it into something greater, which can enslave us in bitterness. Solomon wrote, “He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit, than he who captures a city (Prov 16:32), and “A man's discretion makes him slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense” (Prov 19:11). James said, “everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; for the anger of man does achieve the righteousness of God” (Jam 1:19-20). Hoehner comments: “While believers may at times be legitimately angry (with righteous anger against sin; cf. John 2:13–16), they are not to sin. The way to prevent such sin is to “keep short accounts,” dealing with the anger before the sun goes down. The reason is that the devil would like to intensify a Christian's righteous anger against sin, causing it to become sin itself. This then gives the devil a foothold (lit., “a place”), an opportunity for leading that Christian into further sin. Then anger begins to control the believer rather than the believer controlling his anger.”[1]      Satan uses suffering to pressure us to turn from God. Satan can, on occasion, afflict God's people with suffering (Job 1:1-2:10; Luke 13:16; Acts 10:38); but this is only done with the Lord's permission. Satan's use of suffering is intended to get us to turn away from God, who is the source of life, goodness, and strength. Job is the classic example of a believer who was attacked by Satan (Job 1:1-2:10). Though Job suffered greatly, he understood his life was in God's hands and he kept faith, saying, “Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I shall return there. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD” (Job 1:21). And on another occasion he said, “Though He slay me, I will hope in Him” (Job 13:15a). Jesus said to Peter, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded permission to sift you like wheat” (Luke 22:31). Satan's request was granted. But the Lord also told Peter, “I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again, strengthen your brothers” (Luke 22:32). Peter did return to the Lord and was strengthened (John 21:15-17). The key for us as Christians is to trust in God's love and goodness when we face Satan's attacks against our flesh. This is a faith response not born of feelings or circumstances (Rom 5:3-5; Jam 1:2-4; 1 Pet 1:6; 4:12-13; cf. 1 Th 5:16-18).      Satan masquerades as a messenger of light. Satan was created as a beautiful cherub (Ezek 28:12-14), and he retains all his outward attractiveness. Inwardly he is prideful (Ezek 28:15-17), and this is part of what makes him dangerous. Satan uses his outward appearance as a disguise to deceive others, and many of his messengers do the same. Paul wrote, “Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore, it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds” (2 Cor 11:14-15). The Pharisees were satanic deceivers. They referred to themselves as God's children, saying, “we have one father, God” (John 8:41b). But Jesus said of them, “You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father” (John 8:44a). The Pharisees were very religious. They read the Scriptures, prayed, fasted, offered sacrifices, and spent much of their time at the temple. Jesus said they had “seated themselves in the chair of Moses” (Matt 23:2). This was because they coveted positions of power. Jesus said, they “tie up heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders” (Matt 23:4), they “do all their deeds to be noticed by men” (Matt 23:5), and they “love the place of honor at banquets and the chief seats in the synagogues, and respectful greetings in the market places, and being called Rabbi by men” (Matt 23:6-7). But Jesus also revealed their true identity as “hypocrites” (Matt 23:13-15), “blind guides” (Matt 23:16-19), and those who “neglect justice and mercy and faithfulness” (Matt 23:23). Outwardly they look attractive, “but inside they are full of robbery and self-indulgence” (Matt 23:25), and are “like whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness” (Matt 23:27), and “outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness” (Matt 23:28). Jesus established policy for His disciples when He told them on a previous occasion, “Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if a blind man guides a blind man, both will fall into a pit” (Matt 15:14). He also warned them, “Watch out and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees” (Matt 16:6), by which His disciples understood leaven to refer to “the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees” (Matt 16:12b). Knowing God's Word helps us identify and avoid Satan's beautiful messengers, who outwardly appear righteous, but twist Scripture and promote false doctrines.      Satan empowers his false prophets to perform miracles in order to deceive. When Moses was executing God's plagues upon Egypt, it is recorded that three times “the magicians of Egypt did the same with their secret arts” (Ex 7:10-11; 7:21-22; 8:6-7). Moses warned the Israelites who were about to enter the land that they should guard themselves against false prophets and dreamers of dreams who arise and give them a “sign or wonder”, and then seek to lead them away from God (Deut 13:1-4). Jesus warned of “false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect” (Matt 24:24). And Paul spoke of the coming Antichrist, “whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved” (2 Th 2:9-10). Those who know God's Word and live by it will guard themselves against the deceiving power of false miracle workers.      Satan desires that we turn from God and His Word and live independently of Him. He promotes sinful pride, lies, uncontrolled anger, uses suffering to pressure God's people, masquerades as a messenger of light, and empowers false teachers to perform miracles in order to deceive. Knowledge of God's Word informs us about Satan's strategies, and the humble believer who lives by faith will be able to stand when he attacks. Satan's World-System      Satan is permitted, for a time, to rule over the majority in this world. Three times Jesus referred to Satan as “the ruler of this world” (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11). Other passages of Scripture call Satan “the god of this world” (2 Cor 4:4), and “the prince of the power of the air” (Eph 2:2), informing us “that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one” (1 John 5:19). Satan rules as a tyrant who has “weakened the nations” (Isa 14:12), and currently “deceives the whole world” (Rev 12:9). Furthermore, humanity is living in an “evil age” (Gal 1:4), under “the dominion of Satan” (Acts 26:18), whose sphere of influence is called “the domain of darkness” (Col 1:13). Though Satan has attacked some people directly, he mainly operates as commander of an unseen realm of demons, through a worldwide system of philosophies and values he's created, through unbelievers whom he energizes to do his will, and through the sinful inclinations of our fallen nature.      The Bible recognizes Satan's world-system and warns us not to love it. John writes and tells the Christian, “Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world” (1 John 2:15-16). We live in a fallen world, and John's command is intended to warn us of real danger. First, John opens with the negative particle Μὴ Me, which is followed by the Geek verb ἀγαπάω agapao, which is in the imperative mood—the mood of command. The word ἀγαπάω agapao denotes desire or commitment to something or someone. Allen comments on love: “In its essence love is two things: a desire for something and a commitment to something … Whatever it is you desire and whatever you're committed to, that's where your time and resources will go. If you love football, that's where your time and resources will go. If you love hunting or fishing, that's where your time and resources will go. If you love your spouse, you desire to spend time with her and you are committed to her. Love is more than an emotional feeling. Love requires a commitment of time and resources.”[2]      John then gives the object we are not to desire or be committed to, namely, the world (τὸν κόσμον). The Greek word κόσμος kosmos is used in Scripture to refer to: 1) the physical planet (Matt 13:35; Acts 17:24), 2) people who live in the world (John 3:16), and 3) the hostile system created and controlled by Satan that he uses to lure people away from God (1 John 2:15-16). It is this third meaning that John has in mind. Hence, the word κόσμος kosmos refers to “that which is hostile to God…lost in sin, wholly at odds with anything divine, ruined and depraved.”[3] Concerning, the word κόσμος kosmos, Allen writes: “Sometimes the word “world” is used to refer to the organized evil system with its principles and its practices, all under the authority of Satan, which includes all teachings, ideas, culture, attitudes, activities, etc., that are opposed to God. A fixation on the material over the spiritual, promotion of self over others, pleasure over principle—these are just a few descriptors of the world system John is talking about. The word “world” here means everything that opposes Christ and his work on earth. Jesus called Satan “the ruler of this world” (John 14:30; 16:11), and Paul called him “the god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4). In Luke 16:8 Jesus referred to all unsaved people as “the sons of this world.”[4] Dr. Steven R. Cook   [1] Harold W.

These escalating costs ultimately fall on shareholders, yet there is little evidence that such proposals yield meaningful economic benefits.”Median US CEO pay hits record $16.8 million on soaring stock awardsMedian pay among top U.S. CEOs rose 7.5% to a record $16.8 million for 2024, a new study found, as big stock grants boosted leaders' reported earnings well beyond the pay received by U.S. workers.

They say everyone gets their day in court. For Big Tech, it's looking more like a reckoning. Kait from the Refresh reports on this weeks news. This Week's Breakdown: Meta on trial — Zuck, Sandberg, and Mosseri take the stand as the FTC argues Meta bought Instagram to “neutralize” a competitor. Old emails. Big receipts. Google found guilty — A federal judge rules Google's ad tech stack (DFP + AdX) violated antitrust laws. Remedy phase is next… and yes, Chrome's on the table. The stakes? Massive. Think forced divestitures, self-preferencing bans, and a playbook rewrite for AdTech. History rhymes — This is the biggest antitrust heat since Microsoft in '98. But the market's bigger, the stakes are higher, and the FTC isn't backing down. Future watch — If Google and Meta are Act I, who's Act II? OpenAI? Apple? The next decade's already heating up. Kait's closing note? “Get a good lawyer.” (T. Swift said it best.) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In 2020, Fort Russ News was hit by a major cyber-attack, so the website has been liquidated, but my articles (nearly 1,500 of them are still available on the Web Archives). I'm also active on social networks (particularly Telegram and Facebook), where I'm an administrator of various pages and groups dealing with the aforementioned topics. One such page that was recently deleted (thanks Zuck!) had over 150,000 followers, but we've since moved to Telegram, so we're slowly working toward rebuilding that following. Many other media have republished my work, the most prominent of which are Global Research, South Front, Veterans Today's Foreign Policy, as well as respected Serbian publications such as Politika.

Cet épisode est tiré de ma newsletter (à laquelle vous pouvez vous abonner ici bien sur et est disponible intégralement en vidéo sur la chaine Youtube :)La semaine dernière, je discutais avec un ami de longue date, père de deux garçons adolescents. La voix incertaine, il m'a confié : "Je ne sais plus quoi leur dire. Comment être un homme aujourd'hui ? Quels conseils leur donner quand moi-même je n'y comprends plus rien ?" Son désarroi m'a profondément touché, car il résonne avec une question que je me pose depuis l'adolescence : qu'est-ce qu'être un homme dans notre société ?Est-il encore possible d'incarner une masculinité qui ne soit ni toxique ni effacée ? Comment naviguer entre les attentes contradictoires qui bombardent les hommes quotidiennement ? Et surtout, pourquoi est-il devenu si difficile de simplement être soi-même ? Est-ce que cela signifie même quelque chose ?La confusion règne partout. La bouleversante série "Adolescence" sur Netflix nous plonge dans la réalité de jeunes garçons perdus, tiraillés entre les modèles masculinistes qui prolifèrent sur les réseaux sociaux et une société qui condamne - à juste titre - les comportements toxiques. Pendant ce temps, l'affaire Gérard Depardieu révèle nos incohérences collectives : comment comprendre qu'un comportement de prédateur puisse encore être défendu au nom du "génie artistique", y compris par des figures féminines respectées ? De manière anecdotique, j'écris cette newsletter alors que simultanément j'observe de jeunes adolescents simuler une bagarre et jouer à la loi du plus fort.Dans ma propre histoire, des femmes m'ont parfois qualifié de "trop sensible" ou "tellement fragile" pour avoir simplement exprimé mes ressentis avec vivacité. Ces expériences m'ont amené à m'interroger profondément : notre société sait-elle ce qu'elle attend des hommes ? Savons-nous, en tant qu'hommes, ce que nous voulons être ?Cette confusion n'est pas seulement théorique - elle se manifeste dans nos comportements quotidiens, dans nos relations, dans notre façon d'élever nos enfants. Elle a des conséquences réelles sur la santé mentale des hommes, sur les dynamiques de couple, sur l'éducation des garçons qui tentent désespérément de trouver des repères dans ce brouillard identitaire. Les modèles masculins manquent cruellement : les pères sont souvent absents, les films & séries sont caricaturaux et les algorithmes des réseaux sociaux avantagent les avis extrêmes.J'observe des hommes qui, comme des caméléons, changent de personnalité selon qu'ils cherchent à séduire, à impressionner leurs pairs masculins, ou à répondre aux attentes contradictoires de la société.La masculinité est devenue un champ de mines - un pas trop appuyé vers la virilité et vous êtes un dinosaure toxique; un pas trop léger et vous êtes invisible, insignifiant. Ce numéro d'équilibriste épuise des générations entières d'hommes qui ne savent plus qui ils sont censés être.Aujourd'hui, je plonge sans retenue dans cette question explosive : qu'est-ce qu'être un homme au XXIe siècle, quand personne – ni les hommes, ni les femmes, ni la société – ne semble capable de formuler une réponse cohérente ?Mon histoire d'homme un peu perduParadoxalement, pour un homme, parler de masculinité reste compliqué. On craint de dire une bêtise, de ne pas être légitime. J'avais d'ailleurs expliqué à Angelo Foley cette « peur d'être un homme » sur son podcast il y a quelques années. Mais aujourd'hui, je me sens plus légitime que jamais pour mettre les deux pieds dans le plat.Mon histoire personnelle offre peut-être quelques clés de compréhension. Enfant, j'avais un père pompier de Paris, musclé et "viril" – une sorte de super-héros. Mais un super-héros chroniquement absent, qui ne prenait pas de temps pour ses enfants. Commercial avec le Maghreb, il était souvent en voyage et par ailleurs, il ne nous a pas beaucoup accompagné, pas appris à faire du vélo, pas joué avec nous. Il était un excellent bricoleur mais chaque fois qu'on essayait de l'aider et d'être curieux, il nous rejetait en nous disant que nous étions des incapables…Ce n'était pas nécessairement méchant mais juste réaliste, on lui faisait perdre du temps, très basique.Si je partage cela, c'est parce que je ne crois pas être le seul homme à avoir eu un père absent et donc un manque d'amour inconscient et surtout un père aimant et gentil mais loin de la paternité idéale.Il nous a quitté il y a 9 ans et je n'ai pas eu l'occasion de parler de cela avec lui malheureusement.Il y a d'autres sujets que j'ai abordé avec lui, j'y reviendrais peut-être.En parallèle, ma mère avait arrêté de travailler pour s'occuper de mon frère et moi. J'ai passé de très nombreuses journées dans le jardin de la cité, à écouter les conversations de ma mère et ses amies pendant des années.C'est peut-être de là que vient mon appétence pour les femmes, les conversations profondes, et ma facilité à m'entendre avec elles.J'ai grandi avec une bande de garçons et adolescent, nous trainions et faisions les 400 coups et beaucoup de skateboard. Mais mon caractère s'est véritablement ancré vers 13-14 ans, quand je me suis lié d'amitié avec Émilie. Ma première meilleure amie.Nous nous écrivions, nous nous appelions jusqu'à rendre fous nos parents respectifs.Quand ils en avaient assez, j'allais dans la cabine téléphonique du quartier (ceux qui savent, savent…) pour poursuivre nos échanges. Cette relation – parfaitement platonique puisqu'elle était la petite amie de mon meilleur ami – avait une profondeur incomparable avec les discussions entre garçons. Elle a nourri en moi une sensibilité qui ne demandait qu'à éclore.Depuis lors, mes amitiés sont très majoritairement féminines. Elles représentent sans doute 90% de mon entourage proche.On qualifie la sensibilité, l'écoute, et la vulnérabilité de valeurs féminines, pourtant, elles ne sont pas des qualités genrées – elles sont simplement humaines. Marque de notre société, et de manière très curieuse, même aujourd'hui, je ressens le besoin de préciser que j'ai toujours été attiré sexuellement par les femmes. Comme si une petite voix m'imposait cette clarification, de peur que vous ne fassiez d'autres suppositions. Preuve que les préjugés ont la peau dure, même à l'intérieur de moi-même.J'ai conscience que c'est idiot mais j'ai choisi de vous partager de manière sincère ce que je ressens.En 2 mots, ma vie s'est construite sur des amitiés homme-femme authentiques. Contrairement à ceux qui doutent de leur possibilité, je trace une ligne claire dans mon esprit entre mes « amies » et mes « intérêts romantiques potentiels ». Cette sensibilité est peut-être la raison pour laquelle vous êtes majoritairement des femmes à suivre cette newsletter et mon podcast par ailleurs. La quête d'une masculinité authentiqueComme je l'ai décrit dans ma dernière newsletter, ces dernières années, j'ai travaillé sur ma «gentillesse » parfois excessive pour renforcer ce que l'on pourrait nommer ma « colonne masculine» : plus décisif, plus ancré, plus fort.Et d'ailleurs, je ne peux que constater que depuis que je vis à Lisbonne, je me suis lié d'amitié avec des hommes avec lesquels j'adore échanger. J'ai même créé un cercle d'hommes dans mon salon pour libérer une parole authentique entre nous – car, en vérité, les hommes se parlent rarement de cœur à cœur.Alors, parlons-nous franchement : c'est extrêmement compliqué d'être un homme aujourd'hui (je ne prétends pas que c'est simple d'être une femme, loin de là). En vérité, nous dansons tous ensemble une chorégraphie complexe de genre et d'identité. Mais cette réflexion se concentre spécifiquement sur la masculinité contemporaine.Je ne l'ai pas dit dans ma dernière newsletter mais ma « gentillesse » et mon côté « débonnaire» viennent partiellement d'un rejet du modèle masculin que j'observais autour de moi : mon grand-père, mes oncles, mon père….Mais ce faisant, comme pour beaucoup d'hommes, ma masculinité s'est construite en creux – par opposition plutôt que par affirmation.Mon ami Jerry Hyde que j'ai reçu sur Vlan avec sa femme Mai Hua, l'a judicieusement noté : une certaine masculinité misogyne a parfaitement compris la frustration des jeunes hommes d'aujourd'hui. L'absence de modèles masculins positifs a créé un vide facilement exploitable. On leur a fait croire que le féminisme les avait privés de leur héritage légitime, que les hommes étaient naturellement destinés à dominer, et qu'il fallait revenir aux anciennes normes.Cette rhétorique toxique, combinée au fait que dans les classes populaires, les jeunes femmes réussissent souvent mieux à l'école et trouvent des emplois mieux rémunérés, a privé de nombreux hommes de leur rôle traditionnel de « pourvoyeurs ». Résultat : de nombreux jeunes hommes adhèrent massivement à cette vision régressive.Plus inquiétant encore : certaines femmes adhèrent aussi à cette vision. Pourquoi ? Parce qu'au fond, elles non plus ne veulent pas d'un homme perçu comme faible, insipide, fade, glissant, trop conciliant ou constamment dans l'excuse.Il faut admettre que ce n'est pas très sexy. La misogynie est culturelle et ne dépend pas du genre – les femmes absorbent ces mêmes messages toxiques. Encore aujourd'hui, beaucoup de femmes se construisent aussi, entre autres, avec l'idée que l'homme doit pouvoir subvenir seul au besoin d'un foyer et doit « protéger », créant par là même une dépendance financière et donc une relation de pouvoir à l'avantage des hommes.Nous sommes loin de cette masculinité en creux.Et en comparaison, l'image de l'homme misogyne paraît claire et séduisante pour certaines : puissant, identifiable, riche, entouré de belles femmes, propriétaire de belles voitures etc…Pour des jeunes désorientés, anxieux, perdus, ou pour des personnes plus âgées élevées dans des visions dépassées, cette masculinité toxique devient malheureusement une option attractive. Nature ou culture : au-delà des clichésPour démêler ces questions complexes, j'ai voulu remonter à la source – au moment où la culture pesait moins lourd sur nos comportements. La préhistoire humaine s'étale sur 2,5 millions d'années et représente 99,8% de notre histoire, elle est donc constituée de multiples phases.Mais pour faire court, quand on interroge les experts, il leur est impossible de définir clairement des rôles genrés à cette époque. Les femmes chassaient vraisemblablement autant que les hommes. Et nos ancêtres n'avaient pas établi le rôle de l'homme dans la reproduction, ce qui empêchait tout système patriarcal structuré puisque l'homme n'avait, pour eux, aucun rôle dans la procréation.La sédentarité des femmes est en réalité apparue avec la fin du nomadisme et l'invention de l'agriculture, il y a seulement 10-15 000 ans. Quant à l'imagerie de la femme préhistorique restant dans la grotte et tirée par les cheveux par un homme des cavernes – elle a été créée au 19ème siècle et ne représente aucunement une réalité historique. Il s'agit simplement d'une projection d'une époque sur une autre.Pour aller plus loin, j'ai eu l'immense plaisir de recevoir l'un des primatologues les plus respectés au monde, Frans de Waal. Car au final, tout autant que nous sommes plus proches des humains préhistoriques qu'on aimerait le croire, nous sommes également tous des primates, très proches des grands singes. Ses conclusions sont éclairantes : la distinction entre sexe biologique et identité de genre est cruciale. Si une identité biologique existe, l'identité de genre est largement formée par l'imitation et l'apprentissage social. Les enfants observent et reproduisent les comportements associés à leur genre, ce qui active les centres de récompense du cerveau.Les différences physiologiques sont indéniables – cycles menstruels, gestation, allaitement sont exclusivement féminins. La conséquence principale est que les mâles ont tendance à considérer leur corps comme moins important. Mais la différence semble s'arrêter là.Contrairement aux idées reçues, « l'instinct maternel » tel qu'il est souvent conçu n'existe pas vraiment. Il y a une attirance des femelles vers les bébés, mais les compétences maternelles s'apprennent par l'observation. Quand une mère meurt, ce n'est pas une autre femelle qui prend le relai avec les bébés mais un mâle, qui développe alors dans son cerveau les même éléments qu'une femelle et qui ont trait au soin.A la naissance, les males sont un peu plus turbulents et plus actifs que les femelles mais encore une fois une partie de ce comportement est aussi généré par du mimétisme social pour répondre aux exigences du centre de récompenses de notre cerveau. De même, l'idée qu'un mâle cherche nécessairement de nombreux partenaires tandis qu'une femelle serait sélective est fausse. De Waal explique que les femelles primates sont également entreprenantes sexuellement et recherchent souvent de multiples partenaires.L'idée de la protection des femelles par les mâles est également une construction sociale. Bien que les mâles soient généralement plus grands chez de nombreuses espèces, cette différence est souvent liée à la compétition entre mâles plutôt qu'à la préférence des femelles. D'ailleurs, De Waal note que le dimorphisme sexuel (différence de taille) est relativement faible chez les humains, les chimpanzés et les bonobos comparativement à d'autres mammifères.Enfin, concernant les émotions, De Waal suggère que si leur intensité peut être similaire entre mâles et femelles, leur expression est fortement influencée par des règles culturelles. Les mâles, dans un contexte de compétition, cachent souvent leur vulnérabilité – non par nature, mais par construction sociale.Nous cherchons donc à opposer une réalité physiologique (les hommes et les femmes sont bien plus semblables qu'on veut nous le faire croire) à une réalité sociale – des millénaires de patriarcat. Mais dans le même temps, il est illusoire de penser que l'on puisse s'abstraire totalement de son contexte social.Les 3 grandes religions ont joué également un rôle dans la structuration du patriarcat évidemment mais je ne vais pas descendre dans l'histoire « récente » ici.Je ne crois pas aux hommes parfaitement déconstruits mais très souvent les femmes ne le sont pas plus.Au mieux, je crois que l'on peut s'éduquer sur le sujet et que nous pouvons observer le patriarcat dans nos pensées et développer suffisamment de conscience de soi pour prendre du recul.Et parfois, ça sort j'avoue, je dis une bêtise, ça m'échappe et je m'excuse.Une preuve simple si les expressions « ne fait pas ta meuf » ou « soit un mec » résonnent ou si quand vous pensez à un « care giver » vous pensez automatiquement à une femme ne serait-ce que 1 seconde dans votre cerveau, vous savez exactement ce à quoi je fais référence. Vers une masculinité réinventéeFace au retour en force d'une masculinité toxique (coucou Trump, Vance, Tate, Zuck, Bezos ou Musk…) et à la dérive de certains espaces (comme les communautés de musculation sur les réseaux sociaux qui glissent vers le masculinisme), il est essentiel de proposer une alternative.Comme me le faisait justement remarquer mon amie Mai Hua, également co-autrice avec Jerry du documentaire « make me a man » , en m'envoyant un réel Instagram, les hommes « gentils » utilisent parfois cette masculinité toxique à leur avantage : « je vais te défendre contre ces hommes ». Mais cette masculinité en creux n'est pas une solution viable, car elle suppose le masculinisme pour exister. Ces hommes restent, d'une certaine manière, passifs et complices.D'ailleurs, ils montent rarement au créneau quand ils en ont l'occasion.Il faut reconnaître qu'une société qui vénère la compétition, la domination et l'accumulation (de biens, de pouvoir, de notoriété) est fondamentalement patriarcale. Ensuite, il est crucial de comprendre qu'il existe des masculinités et des féminités plurielles – il n'y a pas une seule "bonne manière" d'être au monde. Personne n'a besoin de s'enfermer dans un carré minuscule défini par des stéréotypes étroits.La série « Adolescence » sur Netflix montre bien comment les hommes souffrent aussi du patriarcat. Aucune place n'est laissée à la vulnérabilité, considérée comme une faiblesse, ce qui entraîne une atrophie de la capacité à exprimer ses émotions. J'ai même observé que certains hommes n'arrivent pas à décrire ce qu'ils ressentent intérieurement – leur vocabulaire émotionnel se limitant souvent à la joie, la frustration et la colère.Ma conclusion personnelle est qu'on peut développer une masculinité posée et ancrée, qui ne soit ni toxique ni effacée. Cette masculinité équilibrée implique une intelligence émotionnelle développée, l'assurance de ses envies et points de vue, une évolution constante en tant qu'être humain (notamment en matière de sexualité, où l'homme croit devoir « savoir » et « dominer », alors que personne ne sait vraiment puisque seul le porno nous « éduque »), la capacité à reconnaître ses torts et à poser des limites claires.Comme le résume parfaitement Jerry : il s'agit simplement d'être un adulte. Cela implique de dialoguer avec d'autres hommes qui ont développé cette maturité émotionnelle (qui n'est malheureusement pas une question d'âge).Finalement, comme pour tout être humain, la tendresse est au fondement d'une masculinité saine. Être un homme suppose d'intégrer toutes les parties de soi – force et vulnérabilité, courage et sensibilité, indépendance et connexion.Pour revenir à la question initiale, le rôle du père n'est pas de faire de son fils un homme mais un être humain entier.D'ailleurs, la théoricienne féministe bell hooks nous offre ici une boussole précieuse.Dans son œuvre "La volonté de changer: Hommes, Masculinité, et Amour", elle soutient que le patriarcat blesse profondément les hommes en les privant de leur pleine humanité émotionnelle. Selon elle, les hommes souffrent d'une "blessure de l'âme" en étant conditionnés à réprimer leurs émotions et à éviter la vulnérabilité.Si je devais traduire ses théories en conseils pratiques pour mes semblables masculins, voici ce que je retiendrais :1. Reconnaître que notre capacité à aimer a été diminuée par le patriarcat - non pas pour nous victimiser, mais pour comprendre ce qui nous empêche d'être pleinement présents dans nos relations.2. Développer une conscience critique de la manière dont les médias et la culture façonnent nos idées de la masculinité, et oser questionner ces messages.3. Pratiquer activement la vulnérabilité - non comme une faiblesse, mais comme la plus grande force qui soit. Comme l'écrit hooks, "l'amour ne peut pas fleurir dans une culture de domination".4. Créer des espaces entre hommes où l'on peut partager ouvertement ses peurs, ses doutes et ses émotions sans jugement.5. Embrasser ce que hooks appelle une "éthique de l'amour" qui valorise la connexion, le soin des autres et la croissance personnelle au-delà des performances de virilité.Cette masculinité réinventée n'est pas un retour en arrière vers des archétypes dépassés, ni une négation de ce qui fait la spécificité masculine. C'est une proposition d'avenir, un équilibre dynamique qui répond aux besoins profonds des hommes tout en s'inscrivant dans une société qui aspire à l'égalité.Le temps est venu de dessiner ensemble ce que pourrait être cette masculinité du XXIe siècle – ni lavette, ni macho, mais pleinement humaine.
