Do you feel that you've been forced into silence? That there isn't an environment to not only support but discuss your own experiences and thoughts surrounding #metoo or navigating consent?
It's okay to be upset. It's okay to be confused and unsure. It's okay to be frustrated. This is a space for men. All men.
**At this time, women are not permitted to attend this event, though an online webinar where all genders will be able to participate is being planned**
THE GREY ZONE. This discussion group tackles just that. Many people saw themselves in the Aziz Ansari narrative. He's not a bad guy. You may not be a bad guy as well, but how do we improve? How do we make a safer environment for women without compromising our own needs and desires? How do we navigate achieving those needs and desires? What do we need from women in order to make this new environment possible?
Each month, we will present a new focal point. This month is: REJECTING and REJECTION. Understanding our fears, desires and how a potential rejecting or rejection shapes our behaviors.

Bryan Stacy CEO at Biem Health and sexual health instigator

Thought leaders will share personal stories and learnings as conversation points. They are there to question and offer perspective, not opinions. This is not a space to attack and correct behavior, but instead a space to unpack feelings and perhaps share not-so-politically correct thoughts.
