Redefining the Throne: Rethinking Masculinity in the Me-too Era

Abstract

The foundations of traditional masculinity have been shaken by the seismic waves of the Me-too movement. This article delves into the complex terrain of rethinking masculinity in this transformative era. Through critical analysis of historical and contemporary constructions of manhood, the impact of Me-too on gender norms, and the evolving landscape of male identities, we illuminate the challenges and opportunities for building a more equitable and inclusive society. By challenging toxic masculinity, promoting healthy expressions of manhood, and fostering open dialogue, we can navigate the path towards a reimagined masculinity that empowers men while dismantling harmful gender stereotypes.
