Masculinity is generally defined as 鈥渢he qualities 鈥 habits and traits that society considers to be appropriate for a man.鈥 So then what鈥檚 the buzz about 鈥渢oxic鈥 masculinity? Are all parts of masculinity bad? Are there good parts of masculinity? What are some notions of masculinity that have changed in the past 鈥 how did they change 鈥 why did they change? Big boys don鈥檛 cry. Real men don鈥檛 eat quiche. Boys will be boys. Don鈥檛 be a sissy. Man-up. How might we rethink the role of masculinity in a changing world? Participants will explore these questions in a unique, interactive program that will improve their communication skills, facilitate learning, and help them navigate gender differences at work and at home.
