Hello, This topic I really found interesting, the one suggestion I would make is put emphasis on the biological variables engaged with male wellbeing, are by far most of men's morbidities and overabundance mortality is identified with wellbeing rehearses, and the social and social impacts that shape them. It is likewise imperative to take note of that while some sex standards can be defensive as far as wellbeing results, men's wellbeing is frequently determined by their endeavors to satisfy to prohibitive societal standards identified with manliness. I personally think to would be very interesting and beneficial to speak on professional athletes and what they have to overcome with social media, culture, etc.. Looking forward to reading about this topic!

Hi! I really like the topic you chose since there's definitely a lot of different directions you can go in. It looks like you will be talking about men being more likely the engage in risky behaviours and less likely to seek medical help, so I think it may be helpful to look into what social factors contribute to this. Is it the societal expectation that men should be able to take more pain and if they seek help they may be seen as weak? I would also love to know if this behaviour is learned from childhood and if it varies by culture? Does the media play a role (i.e. Men's Health Magazine)? I definitely look forward to reading your final draft!
