english essay

in his essay "the high cost of manliness," Robert Jensen analyzes the idea of masculinity in U.S culture, which he describes in this way: "men are asumed to be naturally competitive and aggressive, and being a man is therefore marked by the struglle for control, conquest, nd domination." Jensen argues that this conceptionis flawed and harmful for both men and women.  Choose a movie with a male lead (it could be in any genre) and write an essay in which you use Jensen's insigights to determine whether the male lead is positive or negative role model for boys. Or does he possess both positive and negative traits? Use specific examples from the film to support your ideas and insights.
