Answer:

They can send different messages to people

Explanation:

Masculinity (also called manhood or manliness) is a set of attributes, behaviors, and roles associated with boys and men. Traits traditionally viewed as masculine in Western society include strength, courage, independence, leadership, and assertiveness.

Toxic masculinity is also implicated in socially-created public health problems, such as elevated rates of skin cancer among men, and the role of “trophy-hunting” sexual behavior in rates of transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.

Fragile masculinity refers to anxiety felt by men who believe they are falling short of cultural standards of manhood. • Fragile masculinity can motivate compensatory attitudes/behaviors meant to restore the threatened status of 'real' manhood.

Hegemonic masculinity is defined as a practice that legitimizes men's dominant position in society and justifies the subordination of the common male population and women, and other marginalized ways of being a man.

<u>There are many different ways that MASCULINITY can define a man.</u>

Do you feel like there places you can't say what you really think? Or do what you really want? Example: in the book they aren't

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Yes there are places like that. Yes.

Explanation:

In some places u are not given the opportunity to go out and do wat ever u want. Unlike the Christians in some countries, the Muslims over there do not want to see them holding a bible or even saying that they are Christians. If u ate caught, u will either pay a fine or u will be killed. So the Christians do not come out of their rooms most at times. I might not know the country's name but it is happening, like right now some where on earth.

A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

20th Century: to provide with something freely

Explanation:

The verb endue means to provide or endow with a quality or ability. As a consequence, the sentence means that the mummy was gifted, granted, furnished or empowered with the quality of animation. In that respect, the speaker is comparing a mummy with an unfortunate or unhappy person, who is uglier and more disgusting than a living mummy.
