It is not true that men are unwilling to change. It is true that many men are afraid to change. It is true that many men have not even begun to observe how patriarchy prevents them from knowing themselves, being in touch with their feelings, loving. To know love, men must be able to let go of the desire to dominate. They must be able to choose life over death. They must be willing to change.

Everyone needs to love and be loved, including men. But to know love, men must be able to see the ways in which patriarchal culture prevents them from knowing themselves, being in touch with their feelings, loving.

In El deseo de cambiar, bell hooks gets to the heart of the matter and shows men how to express emotions, a fundamental part of who they are, regardless of their age, marital status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. Masculinity punishes these fundamental emotions, and it is so deeply rooted in our society that it is difficult for men to break free from it. Hooks wants to help change this.

With frankness and fierce intelligence, hooks addresses men’s most common concerns: fear of intimacy and losing their place in society. She firmly believes that men can find the path to unity between body and spirit by reconnecting with the openly emotional part of themselves and reclaiming the rewarding inner lives that have historically been the exclusive domain of women.

El deseo de cambiar is a brave and surprising work, designed to help men reclaim the best of themselves.
