To begin, masculinity is a central trait through which men try to compensate for their race and class subordination. Men use masculinity in an attempt to acquire social status and avoid being subordinated.

On the other hand, masculinities are also shaped positively by authority figures in the appropriate circumstances. Manhood is also accomplished through the subordination of women and through culture.

Penis packing - the art of creating the male organ appear larger, more obvious or extra distinguished by means of stuffing the undergarments with extraneous fabric - is an age-ancient gimmick. It's effortless to have an understanding of the psychology behind this trickery; a lot of men effortlessly believe that having an outstanding penis bulge will advise high-quality penis wellbeing and, probably most significantly, a more sexually mighty instrument. It can also be a most important self belief booster. Blame nature. Human beings may have evolved over the centuries, but sexual movements are still encouraged with the aid of instinct.

Thereby allowing Iago to use what influence and power he has retained to ruin Othello’s life and power dynamic. He relies completely on what he believes to be his merit (through status) rather than loyalty, which Othello favors.

Boys learn to see women as less than human (which leads to assault and rape) because of the exaggerated use of feminine slurs in sports. Boys are forced to participate in such behavior, which leads their “mask” to become desensitized.

Boys learn that they must put up their masks to hide their true feelings for their friends.
“We’re in a world where masculinity, especially with these big spectacle movies, is often pushed by rippling six packs and forcing an image down someone’s throat trying to prove masculinity. Whereas I think true masculinity comes from having a strong sense of self.” This quote by Theo James emphasizes the central concerns of men and also stresses the negative impact in which men in society are affected as to what or should be the “ideal” man.
