What is it like being a man in your 70s? In Episode 2 of Michael Rosen鈥檚 series about manhood and masculinity, celebrated author and poet Colm T贸ib铆n shares how he feels less and less sexual energy as he ages, especially after surviving testicular cancer. But he鈥檚 far from depressed about it. In fact, he鈥檚 busy putting that energy to other uses. In this episode, Colm speaks to the visceral realities of aging, but also the new opportunities for physical and creative self-discovery.
