great video , yes indeed hegemonic masculinity cares less of what women think and don't put them at a status of importance but it also affects males in the sense that it puts tremendous strain on males to conform to the ideals of hegemonic masculinity, it's so sad that we live in a society whereby both men and women are suppressed into this ideology that "thinks" that's the ONLY way to be cool, strong, powerful, brave etc smh ....i'll do me and you do you, thankyou :)

Boys are cool? C´mon, what did you expect from a SURF MAGAZINE? Boys crying of emotion as they see the seashore? Maybe sick boys testing new drugs? You seem to be so obsessed with this feminist discourse that... just lost the pace of reality. I only agree with the idea that woman are portrayed just as consumable bodies, wich is so regrettable.

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. I distributed the link to this video. Hopefully, you'll upload more of this.

Look at those magazines, treating men as success objects, "objectifying" men based on an attribute (skill), how dare they, what about all the poor guys who suck, and those poor ugly.. I mean unfeminine women who don't fit in the category of attractive. When will people learn that everyone is the same....

Now everyone find a sexual partner,

"Do we get to choose?",

No, do at it random since everyone is the same, right?

Very interesting. However I thought that hegemonic masculinity was for men, not women. Is there no other game in town for women?

Biological determinism trumps having a mind!?

[JohananRaatz]

I'll I'm saying is that critical theory often forgets the sociobiological aspects to issues such as these.

[Rozlynnb]

I'm subscribing in hopes that you do.

I mean here it is we women complain about how we are portrayed in media (and I agree it is for the most part quite deplorable) however at a cursory glace at mass media it's obvious men fall into two category as well the bumbling lazy doofus (most comedy show express this, Everybody Love Raymond, According to Jim , Home Improvement, The Simpsons, Family Guy) or the hegemonic masculinity stereo type --->>

[Rozlynnb]

or the hegemonic masculinity stereo type like in the magazine you presented especially good looking, well muscled and suave/macho lady's man and as for News more often then not you hear how evil men are, I truly can't imagine what effect this has on some one to constantly be berated by such messages.

any way yes I honestly would love to see a video on this topic

[Rozlynnb]

ok I cant count that's 3 categorys:

1.) Bumbling Idiot

2.) Strong macho man

3.) Evil

[socimages]

Good point, Rozlynnb. Maybe we'll work one up on hierarchies of men.

[Rozlynnb]

Love everything about this video, very good presentation. However I personally wished you spent more time on the fact that bc hegemonic masculinity is the ideal that men are frowned upon or worse when they don't meet that ideal.

You have solidly explained the two types of women (love that) but only lightly touch on not meeting up to hegemonic masculinity standards for men and it's repercussions and consequences.

Eather way for what it is I think its a great although not complete video.
