Here you find several articles on masculinity.
Written by me on this website:
Masculinity, a manifest: This longread describes the basic male-female polarity and what this implies for being a true male (and female).
The Quest for Maleness: a synopsis of the book from Théun Mares which describes 9 myths about males: 9 socially conditioned perceptions. When taken at face value by men they express themselves in immature behaviour. However, when explored deeper they point at male potential: responsible masculinity, qualities which every male can and NEEDS to develop if he is to become a mature male.
A mature male-female relationship: this article shows how the male-female polarity expresses itself in behaviour in a relationship where both the man and the woman are mature.
And here are some further links to articles of other authors on other websites:
Where have all the heroes gone? Written by Théun Mares for the last male course held at Hopefield on the weekend of 28-30th May, 1999.
Embarrased by your masculinity? There is a growing refrain today of “what has happened to turn men into powerless asexual softies that are at the mercy of everyone and everything?
The passive male. What are the most salient points regarding the passive male. What does he have to unlearn and undo. It takes time and effort to unfold an awareness which is as yet merely in the embryonic stages for the vast majority of humanity! In this respect you are all leaders in this field of endeavour and you can therefore either seize this opportunity for the true gap it is, or else succumb to a sense of apathy and helplessness.
