Survival Guide for the Male Labelled

If you are given a Male Label at birth, you are at a greater risk of certain types of harm.  For example, you are at greater risk of substance abuse, incarceration, suicide, violence, rough sleeping, and exclusion from school.

You are at a greater risk of harm if your Male Label intersects with other parts of your person's identity.  For example, you may experience additional stress because of discrimination; for example, if you are 

• Gender Diverse, and/or 
• A part of the LGBTQ+ community (because of your Sexuality), and/or
• A Persons of Color

So you need to know how to help yourself, and how to seek help when all else fails. 

I have put together a Survival Guide for the Male Labelled.  This includes the following essential tools - 

• Tips to help you develop and maintain emotional wellbeing
• Discussions around the nature and constraints of the Male Label
• Articles about the intersection of your Male Label and other aspects of your identity, including
  • Your true Gender Identity 
  • Your Sexuality
  • Your Ethnicity

Please get in touch via the Contact Page if you would like to change anything about the Survival Guide.  And if you need any more information that is not already covered by the Guide.

Together we can reduce the harm associated with the Male Label, and work towards a healthier, happier society.
