Being a Man

Being a Man in the manly perspective may be projected with ease as it seems, however, masculinity or the imagination of being a man in a strict sense is a trait that has an pique record. Much of this can be attributed to the fact that the social conditions throughout history suggest that men be commonly compelled to show their masculinity in every domain of endeavor. As such, the framework from where the concept of manliness is based has created an almost irreversible plague that has gone hand in hand with history.Manly concepts belittle the meaning of their womanish counterparts due to the fact that the masculinity rouses a sense of self-glorification. In sports, in all field of life, men have become triumphant at the expense of women. This is because of how boys are bred and raised to become men (Theroux 411), up and coming men become totally obsessed with the idea of proving their manhood through their chosen field. Therefore, the enthusiastic individual will do what he de ems necessary to achieve such goal.Femininity plays a bouncy role in belittling their sexuality because of the female species vane nature and alertness to mans inadequacy (Theroux 411). Alfonsina Stornis glaring aversion to manliness appears to be a of how manliness is being glorified objectively over and over. It is a good argument that men and women are equal beings each with distinct qualities, and given the distinction, it is also pat to think that both genders have their set of issues to deal with.However, social constructs, media presentations, and cultures across the world suggest that the nature of manhood demean women in every way. Superhero archetypes for instance are all modeled after men, the earliest superhero characters Superman and Batman are patterned to the typical male image. Likewise, other heroes such as Supergirl and Batgirl are female characters influenced by male characters. Masculinity is not a written law obliging every male person to conform to societys traditional standards.However collective social opinion backed by media sensationalizing and cultural figure dictates the concept of manhood. Furthermore, the dictated solidarity in the concept of being a man eliminates the concept of individuality and the accepted precept of manliness. Works Cited Theroux, Paul. Being a Man.
