Gen Z Men India & Therapists - Masculinity Shift & I Love You Trend

Hello people! My next story for The Indian Express (Online) is on "How Gen Z men are rewriting masculinity and emotional expression." The idea stems from Samay Raina’s recent set Still Alive, where he spoke about how men often fail to console others and tend to be emotionally unexpressive. He goes on to encourage young men to break this cycle and to express love and vulnerability more openly. For my piece, I am looking to speak to Gen Z men, including creators, who have participated in the “I Love You” trend or are trying to break the pattern with their fathers in real life. I would also love to connect with psychologists and therapists to talk about emotional conditioning, parenting styles, and how such generational cycles can be broken. Please reach out to me at [email redacted] Thank you :) #journorequest
