Peer Comment: Intersecting Social Cues and Aggression | 0 | 21:03, 25 July 2019 |
Hello, Thanks for posting this. It was really educational and interesting to me, your final draft is going to be really well done. One route you could also take is through sport, elite sports are results driven. Each generation of new athletes is pushing themselves to new limits, to reach new heights and eclipse records set by their predecessors, I feel like now more then ever mental health and behaviour have been affect because of these result and the fact that coaches are still old school as ever. Just a thought!
Hi, masculinity and violence is an interesting topic that is well worth exploring. I'm just not sure that I fully understand whether your article is about hegemonic masculinity and its effects or if it is on violence and mental health. Although the two seem heavily related, I think it is important to make that distinction and be consistent about which topic you choose to discuss. In terms of exploring the phenomenon of masculinity and violence, I think there is a need to clearly discuss the influence of social cues (in this case, masculinity and socially-expected gender roles) and violence/aggression as two individual factors. Then, it would be a really interesting take for you to intersect these two and see how they contribute to alarmingly higher rates of violence and aggression among men than among women. It would be beneficial for you to dissect this greater phenomenon to examine each component individually before making that intersectional observation.
