Masculine normsMen’s behaviors and healthMen and their emotions Anger and heart diseaseHelping menFor this Episode:
Let’s be sure to define traditional masculinity first. What tradition are we referring to? The dominant tradition in America is defined as American born, white, cis-gender (male), heterosexual, Christian, and an able-bodied person. This is the standard of what all men are held to in America.
Masculinity is used synonymously as male with a Y chromosome. In psychology, Dr. Levant and his colleagues have a different understanding - that masculinity is a gender norm, built by social norms, the unwritten rules of society.
Dr. Levant defines masculinity as harmful. Masculinity norm is obligatory, meaning it’s morally required and demanded from all males. Masculinity is oppressive because it upholds the patriarchy structure, which others women and any other groups outside the masculine social norm characteristics. Masculinity was examined by multiple characteristics and was associated with negative outcomes. And a short list of benefits.
Men have a difficult time expressing their emotions. The inability to recognize emotions and their subtleties and textures is called alexithymia. How do you communicate your feelings to others to be understood, accepted, or acknowledged?
David hopes this helps any men struggling with their health or helps the women trying to help their men.
