Potluck & communal food prepping

Sunday Sept 8, 11am Bordeleau Park

The event was attended by seven guys, who each brought their own potluck contributions, most of which were homemade and some of which took into account dietary restrictions. The communal food prep was not attended. A range of topics was discussed; how to dissuade friends from joining harmful MRA ideologies, to how we can shape our allyship more actively, and whether we can create a space where men can learn how to cope with uncomfortable feelings when they transgress gender norms.

Announcement

We are excited for our upcoming MUC Dungeons and Dragons event! Table top RPGs (D&D and similar games) are fantastic tools for building empathy and taking ones self out their comfort zone in a safe way. We will play with a narrative that is sensitive to gender dynamics, and this narrative is written especially for this event by an experienced dungeon master (8 years).

The event is open for players of all levels, as our DM is accustomed to playing with new through veteran players. Bringing some snacks and drinks is encouraged (potluck style). There will be a 10lb dachshund, she is not hypoallergenic and it can take a few minutes for her to get used to strangers.

If this event is a success and if there is enough interest, the DM is willing to make this a returning event!

Please note that there is a max of six players. Reserve your spot by emailing: Jan@masculinity.info
