An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life.
"A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy.
"It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too." The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win grandfather?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

Mission

At some point in our individual journeys from child to man, we "figure out" that our "childish notions" about the correctness of being affectionate with other males... need be cast aside.

Starting with with our adolescent peers, Western society makes sure that we're punished for nearly any kind of demonstrable affection with other men. "Don't be a sissy."

This is so sad.

is dedicated to promoting men's healing/wholeness in body/heart/soul by supporting men in openly caring for ourselves and one another. All men can benefit from the love and support of other men.

Homophobia, fear of intimacy with other men, wounds men of every sexual orientation. Touch is the language of the heart . . . the way we most directly feel connection and caring. For loving, nurturing contact, sex is not essential. We are men exploring what it means to share real intimacy with other men.
We welcome men of all sexual preferences who wish to move beyond the fears that deprive us of our brothers' love. Dialogue through this web (send letters, poems, essays). Meet in our various events. Become involved in this expanding community of caring men. See video.

A "Handy Guide" to workshop intimacy levels:

offers different events with varying degrees of physical intimacy, to address the interests and comfort of men of diverse sexual orientations. In all our events, we support each man in honoring his own and others' boundaries. Use the ratings below as a quick way to gauge the degree of touch and/or nudity in each event:
