Grit & Glitter: Reading & Discussion Group

Starting Early 2026. Grit & Glitter: Creating Space for Gentleness in Masculinity. What happens when we let go of the script for masculinity? Traditional masculinity often prizes stoicism, dominance, and control—sometimes at the cost of emotional depth, tenderness, and vulnerability. This 8-week group invites you to rethink those scripts and explore a more spacious, compassionate vision of masculinity. Together, we’ll read essays, share stories, and hold space for honest conversation. Through media, literature, and community, we’ll ask what it means to bring gentleness into our relationships, self-concept, and daily life. All genders are welcome.
