When @BBCAfrica highlighted my story of sexual assault, I learned that both the plight and problems of masculine identity as we know it are far more deep-rooted than I thought. And it mostly starts at lack of empathy. Empathy as an idea, then an emotion, then a skill.
Get ready for a juicy conversation!!
Tonight @Rixpoet and @Taruri

Hypersexuality is a trauma response. Many times it's confused for sexual prowess/experimentation or what other people like to call 'hoe phase'. If you're having (risky) sex uncontrollably you're not experimenting. You're reacting to something and you need help.

It is sadder to note that more than 97% were men.
