Justin Baldoni Instagram – Boys Will be Human is out in just a few days!! (Click the link in bio to pre-order)
I am of course biased, but this is a book I believe all boys and young men should read. I wrote it as the older brother and friend that I never had growing up. It’s the book I wish I wish I had this when I was 12 and going through puberty and getting erections for the first time, 14 and struggling making friends, 15 and being bullied for being sensitive, and when I was 16 and having sexual experiences that I wasn’t emotionally ready for. I often say there’s been no handbook for how to be a young boy or a man in this world – so I did my best to write a version of what that looks like in 2022. The truth is no one talks to us young boys about the things we desperately need to talk about. From body image to acting like we know everything, to privilege, porn sex and consent … I really hope this finds the young boys who need it the most. If our young boys can’t become safe places for themselves… This world will never be safe for anyone. | Posted on 28/Sep/2022 20:39:20
