Crisis in Masculinity

Men feel like they have to protect their masculinity: they feel like they can't share emotions, they feel like they can't wear makeup, skirts, things that are seen as feminine. Men feel like they have to be the provider in the family, the source of income.

"Role of a man in a family included the following functions:
• A protector;
• A leader;
• A teacher,
But even this can be handled by women today. So, who is a man today? A hunter and protector or the nurturer, who takes a maternity leave and lives with a bread-winning wife?"
