Masculinity in the Media
Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Constructions of masculinity and their effects on mental health
Hi Leanna & author!
Great topic to write on! My boyfriend did his thesis for his masters on toxic masculinity in adolescence (he's a high school counsellor) and one of the topics he looked at was generational masculinity and how it is passed down from man to man (usually) in families. I think another area to explore would be how to challenge this "norm" within masculinity in elementary schools and high schools because this is where the most nurturing is done.
The majority of the outcome from toxic masculinity is mental health issues which is why I think you chose a great outcome to focus on!
