In my topic about Gender is constructed and thus is always in flux. It talks about men thinking they need to be in a magazine and looking the best so they can show what they have. It says in the book from Gauntlett believes that the discourse of masculinity in these contemporary magazines are distinctive because they recognize that masculinity is a social construction and culture given. But what I think men didn’t need lifestyle magazines because it was obvious what man was and what a man should do. They mostly have been the bread winner ever since they were born.” He believes  the subject matter of today’s magazines for mean are all about the social construction  of masculinity (p.170)

       Can you give me any examples of things of society constructing  masculinity
