Defining Masculinity

Men have individually crafted definitions of masculinity, often subconsciously, influenced by cultural and family scripts. Masculinity encompasses a set of attributes and behaviors associated with men. However, discovering one's masculinity is not as straightforward as assumed, as historical and generational differences in defining masculinity exist. Recognizing the scripted nature of masculinity can prompt individuals to reflect on their own definitions and strive for authenticity.
