In the past, it was often natural for men to spend time with their children and teach them valuable life skills and values. This transfer of knowledge often took the form of manual work, sporting activities or shared experiences of traditions. For example, a father could teach his son how to repair a bicycle, chop down a tree or cook a simple dish. However, much has changed in modern times.
Access to knowledge and information used to be heavily dependent on printed materials such as books, encyclopedias and specialist magazines. People often had to spend hours in libraries to find the information they needed. The way they acquire knowledge today has become faster and often more superficial. While digital formats offer many advantages, in-depth engagement with a topic can take a back seat.
The modern man is indeed facing unique challenges shaped by societal changes, technological developments and new role models. Many men seem insecure and I feel very much the same. I often feel like I don’t have the necessary confidence in many everyday questions or don’t know how to deal with certain situations.
That’s why I decided to share and pass on my knowledge about everyday things, especially with men. I believe that we can all learn from each other and that exchanging experiences and information can support each other. Whether it’s simple life wisdom, practical tips or personal experiences – I want to create a space where we can exchange ideas, network and grow together.
It’s important to me to emphasize that the content on buschmaenner is primarily written for men, but I don’t want to exclude anyone. I also invite women and non-binary people to participate and benefit from the content.
