Between Saints and Sinners; Understanding Men is the recent publication by Dr. Kamran Ahmad- a Clinical Psychologist by profession. Dr Kamran Ahmad holds a Ph.D. in Religion & Spirituality from the USA.
In an interview with Matrix Media, Kamran shares that during the past two decades of his work on gender issues, has he been not only focusing on women’s issues but has also been focusing on men’s issues. Patriarchy, he says has not only defined the role of women in society but has also set certain boundaries within which most of the men have confined themselves. He shares that as a professional clinical psychologist, he has come across stories of men who are living terrible lives without even realizing what they are going through or suffering as a result of patriarchy and societal norms. What he suggests for men is to start thinking about how they have been victims of standards and norms set by the society for them as a result of which they are not able to express emotions most of the time. they fail to build relationships with their families and friends, are not enjoying things in life that they wish to do and are following a routine to fulfil their duties.
