“[My father] told me the expectations he'd carried, as a father, as a son, as a man, had sabotaged his relationships and prevented him from […] really enjoying intimacy, emotionally or intellectually, his entire life. Shocked at the depth of frustration and despair my dad had suffered, I listened and realized […] the masculinity I'd sought, the masculinity I'd been denied, had always been an impossibility.”
