“Dear Men” is a weekly show hosted by Jason Rosario, creator of media lifestyle company The Lives of Men. “Dear Men” explores how men are navigating the evolution of manhood. You can watch the current week's full episode of “Dear Men” every Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on Roku.
Shaun T, the fitness trainer behind popular home workout videos like “T-25” and “Hip Hop Abs,” is an example of that. He is challenging the stereotypes of fatherhood as he raises twin boys in an interracial marriage with his husband, Scott Blokker. “Looking at these two little boys, not to say that it wasn’t really tough to go through that five years, but I couldn't imagine being anyone else but them,” he says. “They are just the light of our world. The light of our life. I didn’t know I had another chamber of love in my heart.”
For my own personal experience of fatherhood to my 17-year-old daughter, becoming a dad has brought me back to myself in a way that no other experience has. It has challenged me to look at myself not only as a father but as the man I aspire to be.
