In discussing the many facets of masculinity among young men, one key issue has been the correlation it has with several developmental concerns. In Michael Kimmel’s 2008 publication “Bros Before Hos: The Guy Code”, he talks about how men believe manhood is really achieved. More specifically, he talks about “Guy Code”, the universal rulebook that all men must follow if they wish to remain in good standing among their fellow man. These rules are taught as early as their toddler years.

Today’s culture sees manhood as being strong, fighting and doing dangerous things, but this is not how it is portrayed in this movie. The theme of manhood is portrayed through the transformation that takes place in the life of Josh Birdwell, the oldest child of the Birdwell family.

“At Seventeen” and “The altar of the family” are constructed to make you agree that being masculine doesn’t require conforming to male stereotypes. Both authors use characterisation, point of view, descriptive language and conflict to convey this opinion. Characterisation in both texts help push the idea that manhood isn’t just about being strong, emotionless and almost robot like. David from The Altar of the Family completely flips masculinity on its head by being a “damn grown boy playing with dolls” this quote tells us that David is different than his normal male counterpart but also asks the reader the question of what defines manhood and if playing with dolls is a non-masculine thing for a male to do. David also is insulted

History has repeatedly given men privilege due to their physical advantages; yet it is these same advantages that have developed into “rules” or expectations that all men should conform to in order to prove their manhood. Michael Kimmel’s essay, “‘Bros Before Hos': The Guy Code” outlines the “rules” where men are expected to never show any emotions, be brave, act knowledgeable, be risk takers, be in control, act reliable, and be competitive, otherwise they would be showing weakness which is analogous to women. It is humiliating that men associate weakness with women; they should focus on the potential of the individual rather than their gender. Most insults toward men attack their masculinity because society finds it shameful for men to be

The ability to understand male role models allows for a more intelligent understanding as to why boys act the way they do, and why our conceived notion on what being a boy changes. While examining the movie Boyhood, directed by Richard Linklater, and the entry “Boyhood” by Eric Tribunella, manhood is defined by “the ability to dominate, care for, or exercise power over others”, while “to be a boy means to be flawed, inchoate, or incomplete” (Tribunella). The movie and the entry both enlighten audiences with examples of boyhood and how it changes and shifts from each person. Linklater’s

If you can keep your head… It was a curious moment when my son’s 12 year old friend began to describe what he thought it was to be a man. He equated manhood to someone who has achieved a certain level of wealth and power. In his young mind, manhood was having a new car, a big house, and being the boss of himself and others.

Michael Chabon’s Manhood For Amateurs is a collection of short stories that Michael Chabon has derived from his own life. Each story is not only interesting, but each story is able to teach the reader something they didn 't know about them self. Reading the shirt story “Fever” I was inspired to write about one of my own experiences, this experience being the first time I ever had pizza in America. In my own personal story I tried to resemble the creative style that Chabon was able to write with, however, I was only able to do so much. The similarity between my essay and Chabon’s essay are that we both have a scene, I tried to resemble this aspect as it was the main focal point that inspired my essay.

It has come to my attention that our society is missing something very important. Something that is crucial for its survival and that is real men who are masculine in a mature way. We have lots of overgrown boys who consume to much soy but very few men. Young men now are growing up without good masculine role models.

Prior to this exchange with Abraham, Gregory had initially divided the feud by social class describing it as “between [their] masters and [them]” (I.I.18) to which Samson responds “tis all one” (I.I.20) in the feud. In this quote, violence is established as a universal of masculinity, explaining the desires of the servants to participate in the conflict with the other men. Samson, once again being used to establish masculinity in the scene, further baits Abraham by taunting him with “draw if you be men” (I.I.60). This dialogue is disregarding their status as servants, and focusing on the previously mentioned fact that as men they have qualities that are worth protecting as part of being a male. Thus, swords being used as props in a scene signal

The Bible shows men, as well as women what God’s expectations are of them. These expectations could be different from a mans upbringing or the opinions of those around him. These expectations include: Seeking God first and foremost, being the leader of his family, being courageous in his walk with God, being bold despite what the world thinks and being humble, not allowing pride to control his life. Carlsbad wrote, “Masculinity and manhood is cool and all, but in many ways the best example of biblical manhood was a very gentle and tender Christ.” (2014)

If I have something on my mind that is bothering me I would go to my dad or sister. They are both super great at keeping a secret. But trustworthy doesn't only mean keeping a secret it also means that you have to be there for someone if they need it and to protect them.

Masculinity (also called boyhood, manliness or manhood) is a set of attributes, behaviors and roles generally associated with boys and men. But the culture doesn’t end at the definition, it starts from there. The first thing to come to mind when the word masculinity is heard is usually a man flexing his gigantic muscles, as the word might sound to suggest, and that right there is the current culture of masculinity because sadly, in the world we live in, not everyone has a “muscular body”. So far we know the concept of masculinity, but the culture is what is truly hampering.
