Summary
Gender roles and equality continue to be a hot topic of discussion. As women make progress in the workplace, gender pay gaps improve, educational opportunities are getting better as women break glass ceilings. Every action has a reaction and now we’re starting to see unintended problems arise for men. There is a mating crisis stemming from the masculinity crisis that has men and women questioning what it means to be a man.
Chris Williamson is a podcaster, YouTuber, and former professional party boy. His podcast Modern Wisdom is the inside journey of him learning out loud from some of the most interesting people on the planet. He’s working on his first book about the mating crisis and joining Tom in this thought provoking conversation about masculinity that doesn’t diminish femininity. With women outperforming men in education and earning more than men in 2023 while also being the gatekeepers of sex men are turning to porn and video games, while women struggle to find male partners that complement their success.
Chris is very clear that this important conversation is not about putting the breaks of women, but rather solving how to put the gas on men to become worthy partners that add value, protect and preserve his relationship and family.

| 0:00.0 | What's up guys? I'm really excited to have Chris Williamson join us today. He's a successful entrepreneur and insightful social commentator whose podcast, modern wisdom, has absolutely blown up and for good reason. There are a few people with a more useful and nuanced view on today's mating crisis than him. In this episode, we go deep into masculinity and what it means to be a quote |
| 0:21.6 | unquote real man. We also talk about why 2023 is going to be a challenging time for many |
| 0:26.8 | guys out there. And we explore how to walk the path to fulfillment and whether toxic masculinity |
| 0:31.6 | is even nothing. I hope you guys enjoy listening to this incredible episode as much as I |
| 0:36.4 | enjoyed recording it. And if you do, please give our podcast a follow. It really is the best way to support us so that we can help more people just like you reach their full potential and be legendary. I'm Tom Bill you and welcome to Impact Theory. I honestly think that you could look at a man on the street now, pointed him and have a 50% chance that he hasn't had sex in the last year. That's insane. What we want is for women to have partners |
| 0:59.0 | that they are fundamentally attracted to. If one sex loses, both sexes lose. |
| 1:05.0 | I asked my Twitter audience what I should ask you since you're going to be on the show and they want to know |
| 1:11.6 | about masculinity. So let me ask you, what does it mean to be a real man? |
| 1:16.1 | Masculinity has a very difficult place to stand in 2023 to be able to find a place which is both |
| 1:21.4 | aspirational for young men to look up to and also acceptable publicly. That seems to be a very difficult line to balance at the moment. |
| 1:30.8 | I would certainly say that integrity, telling the truth, courage, bravery. |
| 1:35.4 | Define integrity for me. |
| 1:36.8 | Your actions and your words are lining. |
| 1:39.4 | The things that you say that you're going to do and the things that you actually do, |
| 1:42.0 | the things that you do in public and the things that you do in private, the things that you do when nobody is watching, and the |
| 1:47.2 | things that you do when you're on a stage, the alignment of essence and action, I think would be a |
| 1:54.4 | good way to get started with integrity. That's pretty good. All right, so we've got integrity, |
| 1:58.9 | truth, bravery, but I think I interrupted |
| 2:00.9 | a longer list. Courage, hard work, perseverance, protect, preserve, provide. Those are things which |
| 2:11.3 | typically would have been the role of a man. Now, the problem that you have in the modern era is that |
| 2:18.7 | the two things ancestrally that men would have done, which would have been warfare and big game |
| 2:23.9 | hunting, have been outsourced to the army and the police force and supermarkets. So, you know, |
