The Social Construction of Masculinity

Gender and sex are characteristics of our identity. Gender describes the inherent physical and biological factors such as male or female reproductive organs and is cited as "a blind boy is a girl" (Elton and Curtis 1998). Whether we have estrogen or testosterone hormones will also tell us whether we are male or female. However, gender is related to the stereotypes of masculinity and femininity, and the expectation of characteristics that men or women should portray. Everyone who has the opportunity to explain men speaks of dominance, non-emotional, masculinity, aggressive language, etc. It will be a family member and a guardian.

Feminist theory explores the social structure of masculinity and the impact on gender equality goals. Feminism believes that male sexual structure is problematic because it links masculinity to aggression and competition and strengthens patriarchal inequality and gender relations. The patriarchal culture is criticized because men can narrow the choice of life by "limiting manhood". Some feminists focus on male rape and concentration on spouses, paying close attention to male radicalism, such as eliminating social adverse effects on men.

Many problems in society are related to social construction of masculinity. How to define masculinity? How to declare masculinity in society? These questions can be answered through a series of important themes in this course: history, sex, relationships, father, prototype and spirituality.

However, in countries where HIV spreads via men who are having sex with men or men injecting drug users, young men are likely to be infected with HIV. Worldwide, as many women as men are infected with HIV, the effects of this disease on men and women vary. Some of them are caused by physiological differences between men and women, but are further caused by sex differences defined by society.

And pay more attention to male-dominated institutions and customs. Express men's characteristics and style. This is a contemporary analysis of modern gender structure and gender relations, but the concept of gender equality is the main international principle of the Universal Declaration of the Universal Decade of 1948. Nonetheless, Grossman and McLean argue that progress to gender equality has not been achieved, there is a clear distinction between formal commitment to gender equality and responsibility and discrimination and affiliation between men and women Sure.
