I’ve recently been in conversations about manliness and masculinity, which has me thinking about roles and stereotypes. Like…
Real men don’t cook or clean…
Real men don’t wear jewelry…
Ream men don’t wear make-up…
Real men never cry…
Real men don’t have long hair…
Real men don’t like to share their feelings…
Real men aren’t into poetry…
Real men are independent…
Real men aren’t into artsy stuff…
Real men aren’t affectionate…
Real men don’t dance…
Real men never show weakness…
Clear enough?
