Remembering when I was so tired and had this weird sock-on-shoulder incident. Turns out Professor Sockman made lots of people smile: today I was delighted to accept the 2023 ‘Melbie’ from Sammy J on ABC Melbourne’s Breakfast. 😊😛 Humanising academics, one sock at a time!

Great to see Dr. Brittany Ralph launching her book Destabilising Masculinism. Such an interesting methodology which engaged with fathers and sons about their generational experiences of masculinity. Here, sons talk about how open emotionally between men is normalised.
