THE THREE TYPES OF MASCULINITY
Researchers from the University of British Columbia in Canada say that men can be divided into three categories of masculinity. They conducted in-depth interviews with 92 heterosexual men aged 19 to 43 from 14 different countries to determine how they navigated partnerships as gender roles continue to transform. The study is published in the August issue of Social Science & Medicine.
– The first masculinity type defined by the researchers is “neo-traditionalist,” whereby a man “largely follows traditional gender roles, such as being the provider and protector in the relationship.”
– The second type is “egalitarian” and involves a man “seeking a more equal partnership, with emphasis on mutuality and measurable give and take.”
– The third category is “progressive,” where men “work on building gender equity in the partnership through regular, purposeful conversations with their partner to adjust who does what.”
* What type of man divides men into three categories of masculinity?
* Two of these three categories look like they involve talking a lot, what man wants that?
* Sounds like you could also call this The Woke Spectrum.
* I thought the three types of masculinity were The Jason Momoa Type, The Bradley Cooper Type, and The Jonah Hill Type.
* It was so much easier 15 years ago. You were either Team Edward or Team Jacob.
* Let me break down the three types of masculinity: They went to see the Barbie movie; They were dragged by their partner to see the Barbie movie; They will never see the Barbie movie. There. Where’s my research grant?
