Today we approach the complex subject of male sexuality, and attempt to be a part of crafting a healthy narrative around a topic that is at-times controversial, dark, and even demonized.
We sit with sociologist and men’s work practitioner, Elliot Katz, and discuss:
- What is the “man box of masculinity”, and how is it problematic for both individuals and society at large?
- How do shame, secrecy, blame, and vilification hinder a healthy conversation around male sexuality?
- What does a healthy relationship with sexuality even look like for boys and men?
- What are tools - like bystander training, consent training, and shame resilience - that can help enable that healthy relationship?
- And finally, what can be unlocked if we can truly heal in this arena?
Elliot emphasizes the importance of self examination, body awareness, emotional literacy, and community support to propel men towards the best versions of themselves: authentic, responsible, self-aware, and embodying a deep congruence between their inner and outer selves… all of which contribute to an empowering story around male identity that cultivates healthy connection, vitality, and vibrancy.

About Elliot Katz:
With a background in sociology, men’s work and fusion partner dance, Elliot brings awareness and attunement to dynamics of power, consent and erotic desire that play out on and off the dance floor. He brings passion, vision and permission to create containers of safety, exploration and transformation. Elliot is the co-founder of the Pulse Partner Dance Collective in Sebastopol CA and founder of Showing Up Trustworthy, soon launching programming to help cis-hetero men deepen into embodied congruence, attuned allyship and erotic nobility.
