No matter what type of community you grew up in, the large sprawling metropolis, the neatly bordered and hedge-trimmed village or the new town with no discernible history, you either embrace its place in your own story or you run away from it, perhaps through the weight of expectation or because you have seen through its soul and wish to be somewhere else that you can call home. However, the chances are that whatever the place you reside there is a growing feeling of unease, of mounting anxiety amongst the young, and their belief that that they no longer recognise their place in society, or how to fix the despair that comes with toxic masculinity.
