Real men aren’t afraid to wear pink, real men know that having emotions doesn’t affect your masculinity. It’s time to kill the stereotype that men should be harsh and strong all the time, you aren’t any less than a man by acting differently than society’s interpretation of what a man should be. Be you and be comfortable that’s all that matters.

Be careful of the masks you feel forced to put on daily as it may get harder to take off when needs be. There’s nothing more beautiful than a person who doesn’t feel the need to mask anything, just be unapologetic you 💫
