What are some contradictory messages and expectations that males hear from our modern-day society?

• i dont know if the question is hear, i think it is how we expect males to be from the past.  males have to be taller, stronger, the breadmakers, bigger, the rock if you will.

 

Identify whether these occur on individual, interpersonal and/or societal level(s) of communication. Expand on this concept. 

• its deff. on the societal level because every guy thinks like this now a day.  I cant be the one to count one my girlfreind/wife for money.... why not? your in a partnership. isnt the point of that to help eachother out? or thats what i thought that it meant! 

 

identify what you feel are some of the rights that patriarchy takes away from men.

• everyone is equal. meaning women are starting take some of the jobs that men used to do and their doing it more professional.  men have always thought they had to be the "man" in every relationship dealing with women, well its starting to turn and some men just cnt deal with the fact that women can do the same thing as men!

 

Are there privileges that men receive simply because they are born male?

•  of course!!! and its the same for women! for example, men are supposed to be not as emotional as women.  meaning we cant get our feelings hurt or act like "babies". 

 What do men need to be liberated from? What would a men's liberation movement look like?

• first off we need to start with having a more open mind!!! be more acceptable toward others doing things. with this start we as a society will only benefit from this.
