Masculinity #9

Masculinity is all around for young boys growing up you are pressured into doing sports and or things that are considered to be manly. One thing that is a big thing would be sports if boys don't want to play a sport that is manly or any sport for that matter they are considered to be unmanly and are subjected to name calling. Another way masculinity plays a big toll in todays culture is if you think back a couple post we had to pick two slides that dehumanized women and made men look like the dominant sex. Being considered manly is all around us even in the work force if you don't do anything that you have to work with your hands your doing a girls job lol. Another thing that young boys or teens see as a way to make your self manly is to join the military they think that just by joining that you can become a man over night lol. I can tell you first hand being in the military that there are a lot of boys that do this.
