Hey guys! In order to put this all into perspective for you, I decided to go and interview a man about perceived masculinity, and what his opinions/experiences were. Really great and insightful! Big thank you to Richard for letting me film him.

Cultural Scenario.
You are a school counselor at a middle school, and you are meeting with two families regarding a fight that broke out between two boys. They have bruises, and many verbal threats were made between the boys. When the parents come in, one parent is extremely apologetic, while the other one says the following: “Boys will be boys, this is what they are supposed to do. I do not see what the big deal is.” What do you do?
“The aim of this study was to investigate how masculine norms impact men’s help-seeking as well as care givers’ behaviors and willingness to support men in need of psychological help or perceived to be at risk of suicide.”
Really great research into how men seek help in regards to their mental health. It gives an in-depth view of how sociocultural contexts of masculinity affect men’s health, and when they are more or less likely to seek help.

Really good Ted Talk from Justin Baldoni.
“I can tell you right now, it is EXHAUSTING trying to be man enough for everyone, all the time.”
“I know men who would rather die than tell another man how they feel.”
Romantic partners of men might be interested to learn that there’s actually a technical term for the frequency with which men struggle to articulate their feelings: “normative male alexithymia.”
Psychology and psychotherapy were designed by males to treat females, and while in recent years psychology has adapted a way to treat LGBT communities, women, different ethnic and race groups, therapy tailored specifically for men is still one that has not been adopted.

What do hypermasculine environments do for men?
If there is one population that is highly under-studied, represented, and acknowledged, it is those who are incarcerated. The vast majority of those who are incarcerated are men. This research study focuses on men’s mental health in and out of the prison system, and what hyper-masculine environments can do to their health. In addition to that, most men who are incarcerated have been exposed to violence and adversity since childhood. The study follows 18 different men who have been out of the prison system for 5 years. THESE ARE THE FACTS PEOPLE!!

It seems as though perceived masculinity is NOT limited to just the straight cis-gender community, but the LGBT community as well. Interesting video from the perspective of a gay man!
