Masculine honor ideology (MHI) refers to a set of beliefs that dictate men must respond aggressively to threat or insult to maintain their ideal masculine reputation. The current study demonstrates the robust relationship between MHI and lifetime aggression outcomes in a national sample of men from the United States. It also details the regional prevalence of MHI and compares these rates across races and regions of the country. Participants included 896 adult United States men ( M age  = 35.86, SD  = 1...

Background: An understanding of the factors that influence cardiovascular (CVD) risk among young Black men is critically needed to promote cardiovascular health earlier in the life course and prevent poor outcomes later in life. Purpose: To explore how individual (eg, depression, racial discrimination) and environmental factors (eg, neighborhood resources) are associated with CVD risk factors among young Black men. Methods: We conducted a convergent mixed methods study (qualitative/quantitative, QUAL+quant) with Black men aged 18 to 30 years (N = 21; 3 focus groups)...

One promising though understudied approach to addressing race/ethnic disparities in teen pregnancy rates is through sexual and reproductive health (SRH) programming for young men. This pilot study assessed the feasibility, quality, and preliminary efficacy of Manhood 2.0-a group-based, after-school SRH program for young Black and Latino men, which examines gender norms. This mixed-methods study describes program attendance and quality; participant experiences and engagement in the program; and changes in participant gender norms, knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and social support...

OBJECTIVE: The use of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to prevent HIV infection is significantly low among Black sexual minority men (BSMM), although this group experiences the greatest HIV burden in the United States. One contextual factor suggested to impact BSMM's HIV prevention efforts is the concern about, and adherence to, cultural conceptions and expectations of masculinity. The present study sought to better understand the association between masculinity and PrEP uptake by examining associations between gender-relevant beliefs and perceptions, and intentions to initiate PrEP among a sample of BSMM residing in the U...

COMMENT
Derek M Griffith
In this commentary on "A Relational-Cultural Framework for Promoting Healthy Masculinities" (Di Bianca & Mahalik, 2022), I suggest that healthy masculinities may benefit from considering other factors than hegemonic masculinity. Borrowing the concept of mosaic masculinities, I argue that many men do not view hegemonic masculinity as an aspirational ideal. They create other ideals for themselves by using elements of hegemonic masculinity that they value and that they can attain. Some men may create mosaics of ideals that they use as north stars to guide who they would like to be and how they would like others to view them...

We present a conceptual framework for relational interventions focused on helping boys and men navigate harmful socialization occurring in U.S. dominant culture, one which upholds a restrictive image of manhood that gives rise to health problems and social injustice. Drawing from relational-cultural theory, we frame the crises linked to hegemonic masculine socialization as shaped by interpersonal and sociocultural disconnections that keep boys and men in rigid confines of what is expected of "real men," which are detrimental to their well-being and operate to maintain oppression and violence...

OBJECTIVES: The influence of masculinity norms on disparate health outcomes has been established in the literature. What is less understood are the specific ways in which African- American men 'do health' by engaging in strategies promoting positive health outcomes. This paper reframes what has been previously examined through a health deficit perspective by reporting the experiences and positive health maintenance strategies of older, African-American men with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (diabetes)...

Few studies have tested what aspects of manhood are associated with health. In this study, we examine how aspects of African American Manhood are related to health. Using cross-sectional data from a criterion sample of 300 African American men 35-73 years old (M = 46.53), we examined how aspects of African American Manhood, demographic characteristics, and health conditions were related to self-rated health. When we controlled for demographics, SES and health conditions, different aspects of manhood were associated with good/excellent health...

A critical analysis of the discourse of female sex workers residing in the Antofagasta region in northern Chile is presented. It highlights the discursive constructions of female sex workers on the commercial, affective, and sexual bond with male mineworkers. From this discursive production emerges the image of a whore-mother, of a woman who, encouraged by a monetary transaction, knows how to embody what her client-miner needs beyond sex: to reinforce his manhood while welcoming him and recognizing him as an affectively deprived subject...

Although mental health diagnoses and treatments are spreading across the globe, most medicalization research originates from the Global North, where diagnosis and treatment are well institutionalized. In this article, we examine the earliest possible emergence of ADHD diagnosis and treatment in the context of Ghanaian boys' transition towards manhood. Based on ethnographic fieldwork among boys from different class backgrounds in Accra in 2017, we identify how interactional troubles arising at the tricky transition to manhood provide a fertile or inhibiting context for medicalization...

BACKGROUND: In South Africa, penile loss is a recognised complication of ritual circumcision which has a profoundly negative effect on these men's psyches and their everyday lives. The purpose of this paper was to investigate the experiences of the first two South African penile allograft transplantation recipients in order to assess the psychosocial impact of this surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A qualitative descriptive phenomenology approach was used. A total of four in-depth interviews were conducted with the two South African penile transplant recipients...

This article documents the reconstructed domestic masculinity of a retired Chinese man during the COVID-19 quarantine period in China. It is based on participant observation of the man and his family as a case study. It demonstrates how the man turns kitchen work into a "masculine" job, and uses it as a contested terrain for constructing hegemonic masculinity by adopting scientific discourse explicitly and traditional patriarchal discourse implicitly. It also highlights women's conscious and deliberate interactions with the man in contributing to the making of hegemonic masculinity for the sake of their own values of happiness...

This paper explores how the intersection of masculinity and religion shapes workplace well-being by focusing on Christianity and the social construction of masculinity among factory workers in a city in China. While existing work on public and occupational health has respectively acknowledged masculinity's influences on health and the religious and spiritual dimensions of well-being, there have been limited efforts to examine how variegated, and especially religious, masculinities influence people's well-being in the workplace...

Male dominance in a patriarchal society can be attributed to the phallus which symbolises masculinity, power and vigour. Any injury to the penis is therefore, injury to manhood. We report a rare case from Nepal where an elderly man who allegedly committed a sexual offence suffered a malicious injury to his penis in retaliation by his family.

In this paper, we describe our approach to individualizing messages to promote the health of middle-aged and older heterosexual, cisgender African American men. After arguing the importance of being population specific, we describe the process we use to increase the salience of health messages for this population by operationalizing the identity concepts of centrality and contextualization. We also present a measure of African American manhood and discuss how manhood is congruent with qualitative research that describes how African American men view their values, identities, goals, and aspirations in ways that can be utilized to create more meaningful and impactful messages to promote and maintain health behaviors...

OBJECTIVE: Most women and men want and expect to have children but increasing maternal and paternal ages reduce their ability to achieve this. Most research relating to childbearing has focused on women. The aim of this study was to explore reproductive-aged men's fertility information-seeking attitudes and behaviours. METHODS: Focus group discussions were conducted with younger (18-30 years, 3 groups) and older (31-45 years, 3 groups) men, residing in urban, peri-urban or rural settings in Victoria, Australia...

Despite a comprehensive national program of free HIV services, men living with HIV in Botswana participate at lower rates and have worse outcomes than women. Directed content analysis of five focus groups ( n = 38) and 50 in-depth interviews with men and women with known and unknown HIV status in Gaborone, Botswana in 2017 used the "what matters most" (WMM) and "structural vulnerability" frameworks to examine how the most valued cultural aspects of manhood interact with HIV-related stigma...
