What is this blog all about?

     Welcome to College Masculinities! This blog aims to highlight the dynamic of masculinities as it moves from high school to college. The variety of posts such as videos, books and interviews will provide insightful information to the negative effects of “toxic” masculine stereotypes as well as highlight the push toward the deconstruction of said stereotypes. Hopefully spreading information that can educate students and others on how it affects female students but how it directly affects male students that actively work toward changing societal standards of how a "man" should act. Aspects of human behavior assigned to male gender can push harmful stereotypes that fuel the patriarchal social standards we fight with today. We as the writers hope that our readers have an immersive and educative experience that opens communication about societal gender stereotypes and helps assess the negative aspects that are perpetuated.
