Are you tired of hearing this? Man up. Man up. MAN UP! So is he.

I found this on Upworthy. I’m not even sure how to describe it, except that Guante might have the 10 awesomest responses to that stupid phrase.

I love this video – my sister likes to tell me to man up – it drives me up the wall. It’s amazing how much more similar men’s and women’s experiences are than we think.
Great video.
Thanks so much for posting this. I’m really not a fan of the phrase ‘man up’ and loved watching the way that Guante responded to it.
Jonathan, I agree. Not just his words but the passion behind them.
I can’t tell you how many young men I see at the university I work at who are trying to “man up” at the cost of their humanity, happiness, and health. I will be sharing this with my therapy clients and the students in my classes. Thanks for sharing these words in this space.
