Send us a text In this urgent and unscripted episode of Aspire , recorded just days after the 2024 presidential election, Co-Founder of I Have the Right To, Alex Prout, joins student Co-Hosts Gabriel Viscogliosi and Hugh Eastman for a deeply personal and honest conversation about the state of masculinity in America. With Donald Trump’s re-election casting a long shadow, the team confronts the cultural messages being reinforced about leadership, character, and manhood. They speak candidly about the disturbing rise of phrases like “Your body, my choice” and the dangerous normalization of misogyny among young men—particularly in digital spaces and on social media. Together, they explore what it means to model and encourage aspirational masculinity in a time when dominance, aggression, and disrespect seem to be celebrated. This conversation is a call to action—one that urges parents, educators, and young people alike to reclaim the narrative around masculinity and to start vital, sometimes uncomfortable, conversations around their dinner tables and in their communities.
