noimnotacelebrity Our culture emphasizes and praises the V-shaped muscular body shape as the ideal and often times ONLY body type for ALL men.

Remember that your body size, shape, or weight does not determine your worth as a person, or your identity as a man. In other words, you are not just your body. Expand your idea of ?masculinity? to include qualities such as sensitivity, cooperation, caring, patience, having feelings, being artistic. Some men may be muscular and athletic, but these qualities in and of themselves do not make a person a ?man.?

Demonstrate respect for men who possess body types or who display personality traits that do not meet the cultural standard for masculinity; e.g., men who are slender, short, or overweight, gay men, men who dress colorfully or who enjoy traditional ?non-masculine? activities such as dancing, sewing or cooking.
