Masculinity isn’t the problem.
Uninitiated masculinity is.
There’s a difference between being wild and being feral.
Feral is loud, reactive, volatile.
Wild is strong, contained, grounded.
Feral wounds.
Wild protects.
Feral dominates.
Wild serves.
The world doesn’t need more tame men.
It needs men who’ve gone through the fire and returned faithful.
The wild man has rage—but it’s ruled.
He has grief—but it’s processed.
He has joy—but it’s not childish.
He doesn’t run from pain.
He doesn’t lash out when he’s afraid.
He stays. He feels. He carries.
If your fire is out of control—it’s not masculine.
It’s just untrained.
This week, don’t tone it down.
Turn it inward. Channel it upward.
Let your wildness become something sacred.
