Abstract
The chapter looks at male body-in-resistance to the current inequitable and unjust world order, seeking a humane, sustainable alternative. It is a (self-)reflection on masculinities, based on conversations the author has had over the last three decades during his work as a gender justice, GBV and SRHR consultant, trainer, lecturer and activist.
