| Miêu tả: | By presenting some of the ideas constructed on masculinity and femininity, this paper aims at clarifying such concepts, in plain language, from a critical –and gender-sensitive– point of view, and make such information available to a wider public, without undermining, however, the importance of conveying ideas in academic and scientific terms, as well. Therefore, its purpose is to clarify the nature of both concepts in the construction of the individual’s identity, particularly in the case of men whose identity is based on the rejection of femininity. This paper explains how such constructions are permeated by social mandates, which manifestation will depend on the culture. It also alerts us on the challenge of education in deconstructing gender-based stereotypes. |
