We talk a lot about the expectations society has for girls and women, whether it's how people think women should act, how they should look, what they should wear, and basically everything else. But it's not just girls who face unrealistic and potentially harmful societal standards - it's everyone. For young men, these standards can be just as harmful and stringent. In a new ad, Axe shows exactly what impact these expectations have, and how they contribute to the toxic masculinity that hurts everyone.

According to the ad, 72% of guys have been told how a real man should behave. That, Axe points out, leads guys to Google questions about what it is and isn't ok for them to do. Some of these questions, which the ad scrolls through, showing really guys having these thoughts, include if it's ok for guys to be skinny, to not like sports, to be a virgin, to wear pink , to hook up with other guys, to be depressed, to be scared, to be the little spoon, and much more. It ultimately asks if it's ok for guys to be themselves.

The Good Men Project defines toxic masculinity as follows:

Toxic masculinity is a narrow and repressive description of manhood, designating manhood as defined by violence, sex, status and aggression. It's the cultural ideal of manliness, where strength is everything while emotions are a weakness; where sex and brutality are yardsticks by which men are measured, while supposedly "feminine" traits - which can range fromemotional vulnerability to simply not being hypersexual - are the means by which your status as "man" can be taken away.

Toxic masculinity tells guys that they should be one certain way, which encompasses how they look, how they act, how they treat others, and more. Brown University points out the way men are socialized plays into rates of violence and sexual assault in society.

"Unfortunately, the way that young men are conditioned to view sex and their need to be dominant and have power over others also contribute to instances of sexual assault and other forms of interpersonal violence on college campuses," a post on BWell from Brown University says. "Men don't have a lot of spaces to have open and honest conversations about the different things that they are dealing with, like how they grapple with emotions or deal with conflict."

This is exactly what Axe's ad is addressing. And it's not making up the questions guys ask in the ad either. If you enter "Is it ok for guys" in Google, a bunch of autofill options come up.

The five-minute documentary " A Conversation About Growing Up Black " explores what it's like to be a young black man or boy in America.

Joe Brewster and Perri Peltz write:

Imagine strangers crossing the street to avoid you, imagine the police arbitrarily stopping you, imagine knowing people fear you because of the color of your skin. Many of this country's young black men and boys don't have to imagine.

In this Op-Doc video, "A Conversation About Growing Up Black," we ask African-American boys and young men to tell us candidly about the daily challenges they face because of these realities. They speak openly about what it means to be a young black man in a racially charged world and explain how they feel when their parents try to shelter and prepare them for a world that is too often unfair and biased.

As we debate the headlines about the deaths of young black men and police misconduct, from Baltimore to Ferguson to Staten Island, we fear our society is turning away from the painful conversations that need to be had at home, in our own communities, schools and families. Focusing our attention on the nation's latest racial hot zone often devolves into the same old invectives about race and politics, and we lose sight of the bigger picture. Worse, it allows us to avoid the painful discussions we need to have with our young people about their concerns, and the role we each may play in them. We can be a part of the solution only if we dare to open up and have the conversation.

It's 2018, but we're still learning about events that could've affected the 2016 presidential election in the United States.

NBC's Matt Lauer was fired after he was accused of sexually harassing women. He joined a lengthy list of men in media who have been fired or put on leave for similar reasons.

Other journalists, including those from NBC, NPR, and PBS have been accused of sexual misconduct against women, and many of those journalists covered candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump during the 2016 United States presidential election.

As more men are added to the list comprised of those accused of sexual misconduct, it's crucial to revisit how they covered America's first female presidential nominee for a major party.

In September 2016, Lauer moderated a forum between both candidates, and in Clinton's account of that night in her book What Happened, she describes how she feels the journalist treated her. In a televised event that was supposed to cover national security and foreign policy, Lauer focused on Hillary's emails, which he'd also brought up during an April 2016 interview.

"Lauer had the look of someone proud of himself for having laid a clever trap," Clinton wrote. "I was almost physically sick."

In the book, Clinton worries the coverage didn't help voters decide who should've been president and wishes she'd pushed back more, especially seeing Lauer neglect to call Trump out on lies about his position on the Iraq war and interrupting Clinton multiple times.

Men at a high level controlled the narrative during 2016, and they continue to affect what we read on a daily basis at other publications, making the problem much larger than one election.

A 2017 survey by the American Society of Newsroom Editors found that minority journalists comprised just 16.6% of newsrooms that responded to the survey, results taken from nearly 700 print and online publications. On average, newsrooms were 63% male, and though a few reported having a 50/50 split, no newsrooms reported having 70% or more female staff.

As allegations continue to accumulate against men in the industry, female journalists in media companies are reckoning with accusations against colleagues and with allegations not yet made public. In December 2017, New York Times journalist Emily Steel reported on a culture at Vice, that, two founders said in a statement to the Times, "failed...to create a safe and inclusive workplace where everyone, especially women, can feel respected and thrive." Steel reported some of the company's top management had been accused of sexual harassment , and Vice- known as a progressive media outlet covering important global news- put two of its executives on leave over allegations. Vice told the Times it had updated its sexual harassment policies and made a commitment to achieving gender-pay parity by 2018, among other initiatives.

The girls and women were making the matches. Match makers were usually the very poor people.Usually women and girls. All of the work was done standing and also had to run up and down stairs. They were running because they were paid by the piece not by the hour or day. They also could not bring home all of their pay because they had to pay back the company for the tools they used to make and box matches. They also got fined for stuff like dirty feet, leaving the area around the bench untidy, leaving matches on the bench(table) while getting a new frame, and talking. Being late would cause loss of half a days pay.

Most people will stereotype men because maybe maybe they have a higher pitched voice so they must be gay. Right? Wrong, Most people get the pitch of their voice from what they grow up around. For example a guy whos voice is higher pitched they might have grown up around a lot of women. A man whos voice is lower might have grown up around a lot of men and they can be gay. So it does not matter how high or low someone's voice is they get to choose if they are gay or straight.

What does it mean to "sound gay"? Why do some men sound this way, whether they are gay or not? Where do vocal differences come from?

David Thorpe explores these thoughts in his film " Who Sounds Gay? " and in the process raises fascinating questions about gender stereotypes and stereotyping in general. He writes about the film:

For the last few years, I've wondered why some men "sound gay." I began asking people for their thoughts on the subject, and received a surprising range of answers. Some people said the gay voice was a put-on, like a man in a conspicuously sparkly dress. Others thought gay men sounded gay just to let other gay men know they were. Some thought that every man who sounds gay is gay, even if he claims otherwise. A lot of people said, "Wow, I don't know."

I decided to make a film about the stereotype of the "gay voice" and my own anxieties around "sounding gay" (I am gay, and sometimes worry that my voice gives me away before I'm ready to come out). I interviewed strangers on the street for the film because, as I discovered, the origin of men's gay-sounding voices intrigues people of all backgrounds, regardless of their sexual orientation. (I subsequently became intrigued by the intrigue.) Nobody knows for sure why some people sound stereotypically gay and others don't. This Op-Doc video explores one of the prominent theories.

As you watch, consider something that a linguist kept reminding me: There's no such thing as a fundamentally gay voice. Plenty of men may sound gay, but their voices aren't evidence that they are gay. What we call the "gay voice" belongs to us all.

The global trend towards extreme wealth and income concentration has dramatically strengthened the economic and political power of those individuals - overwhelmingly male - at the top. In the United States and around the world, women continue to be underrepresented in high-level, highly paid positions and overrepresented in low-paying jobs. Women of color and transgender individuals experience particularly high levels of poverty, unemployment, and other economic hardships. Gender discrimination and sexual harassment in the workplace contribute significantly to these persistent economic divides.

Inequality Across Gender Diversity and Covid-19

The Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbated long-standing gender inequalities. Women are more likely than men to work in service occupations, including domestic work, restaurant service, retail, tourism, and hospitality, that require face-to-face interactions and have been hard-hit by layoffs. Because of the nature of these jobs, teleworking is not an option for many women.

Frontline jobs, which are the ones most often deemed "essential" and require people to work in-person, are also heavily staffed by women. The health care, social work, and government and community-based services sectors are overwhelmingly made up of female employees, according to research from the Economic Policy Institute. Women make up 73 percent of government and community-based services workers, 76 percent of health care workers, and 78 percent of social workers.

The official U.S. unemployment rate does not include people who have not looked for work in the past four weeks. Because women tend to bear more responsibility for family caregiving, women with children were more likely than men to drop out of the labor force when schools and care centers closed due to Covid. Rand Corporation research reveals that the steepest decline in labor force participation in the first phase of the pandemic was among women with two children, at 3.82 points, compared to a 1.39 point drop for men with two children. More recently, the shortage of affordable childcare services has emerged as a barrier for women in returning to jobs in restaurants and other low-wage sectors, contributing to staffing challenges.

Among U.S. women who've stopped looking for work during the pandemic, the steepest drops have been among women of color. Between February 2020 and November 2021, Black women had a 3.5 percentage point drop in labor force participation and Latinx women had a 2.8 point drop, compared to 1.7 for white women. Several factors may have contributed to women of color becoming discouraged from seeking work. On top of gender inequities, women of color face racial discrimination in hiring and layoffs and they are disproportionately concentrated in service and care sector jobs with high risks of Covid exposure.

Transgender people are always in a precarious position, but the Covid-19 pandemic has made them particularly vulnerable. According to research from the Williams Institute at UCLA, transgender Americans are at a higher risk for Covid-19 for several reasons. They are more likely to be low-income, with 47.7 percent of transgender people living below 200 percent of the official U.S. poverty line, compared to 28.9 percent of the general U.S. population. They are also significantly more likely to suffer from asthma and HIV, conditions that put people at higher risk of mortality if they contract Covid-19. And they experience high barriers to receiving health care.

The pandemic has also hit transgender Americans especially hard economically. A poll from the Human Rights Campaign and PSB Research shows that as of June 2020, 54 percent of transgender people had experienced reduced work hours - more than double the 23 percent of the total U.S. workforce that faced a similar reduction. Twenty-seven percent of transgender people had experienced pay cuts, compared to just 7 percent of the U.S. workforce. And 19 percent had become unemployed due to the pandemic, a significantly larger share than the general population.

Gender Income Gaps

Female-dominated occupations - such as childcare and restaurant service - continue to occupy the lower rungs of the U.S. wage ladder. Women make up 67 percent of workers earning the federal minimum wage according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a wage rate stuck at $7.25 since 2009. By contrast, women represent only 8 percent of CEOs at Fortune 500 firms. CEOs took home $15.5 million on average in 2020.

White males particularly dominate highly lucrative financial industry jobs. At the top five U.S. investment banks (JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and Citigroup), males make up from 64 to 82 percent executives and top managers. The share who are white ranges from 70 to 81 percent. More than two-thirds of all New York City securities industry employees were male in 2020, and nearly three-fifths were white.

Men make up an overwhelming majority of top earners across the U.S. economy, even though women now represent almost half of the country's workforce. Women comprise just 27 percent of the top 10 percent, and their share of higher income groups runs even smaller. Among the top 1 percent, women make up slightly less than 17 percent of workers, while at the top 0.1 percent level, they make up only 11 percent.

Other major economies show similar trend lines. A study of eight high-income countries from the London School of Economics found that women made up just 14 percent to 22 percent of the top 1 percent of earners. These surveys were conducted during the 2010-2014 period. The U.S. figure for 2012 is from the National Bureau of Economic Research.

Throughout the U.S. workforce, women remain vastly underpaid. Among full-time workers, women earned less than 81 cents for every dollar a man earned in 2016. If part-time workers were included, the gap would be even wider, since women are more likely to work reduced schedules, often in order to manage childrearing and other caregiving work.

Within racial groups, Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows the largest pay gaps between men and women appear among Whites and Asians - not because Latinas and Black women have made faster progress towards equity but because average pay for men in these groups falls far below the compensation of White and Asian men.

American women earn less than men, on average, in all industries. The largest pay gaps are in management positions, where men made $88,000 on average in 2016, compared to just $55,000 for women. The smallest gap appears in the construction sector, but women make up only 9 percent of workers in this industry.

The U.S. gender pay gap, while unacceptably large, is not the world's widest. But accurately measuring these gaps across countries can be difficult. Within the OECD group of higher-income nations, South Korea holds the widest gap, with men earning 37 percent more than women, on average. The country with the narrowest gap: Luxembourg, where men make just 3.4 percent more than women. Gaps have been smallest in OECD countries where the share of workers covered by collective bargaining agreements hits at least 80 percent and widest in countries with weak collective bargaining and no or very low minimum wages.

The International Labor Organization concedes that more work needs to be done to develop more accurate global gender gap analyses. One factor skewing the numbers: Women do considerably more unpaid work, from housekeeping to caring for children and the elderly. Among the 21 countries reporting data for at least one year during the 2013-2015 period, the West Bank and Gaza had the greatest imbalance, with men devoting just 16 percent as much time to unpaid domestic and caregiving work as women. Belgium, where men spend 63 percent as much time on these activities as women, ranked at the top.

In the UK, a new regulation requires corporations to disclose the pay gaps between their male and female employees. Financial firms have among the largest divides because of the scarcity of women in top positions. In 2018, HSBC reported the biggest gap, with the bank's female employees averaging just 41 percent as much as UK male employees. For all 10,000 firms in the survey, the median-paid male employee received 9.7 percent more in pay than the median female.

Gender Wealth Gaps

Most inequality analysis focuses on income (the wages earned from a job or from capital gains) rather than wealth (the sum of one's assets minus debts). Income inequality, while stark, pales in comparison to wealth inequality. The divides become even more dramatic when viewed through a gender lens.

At the top end, we have no more striking sign of increasing global wealth concentration than the rise of the billionaire class. The number of individuals with fortunes worth at least $1 billion more than doubled between 2010 and 2018, while remaining overwhelmingly male. In 2018, only 256 women ranked among the world's 2,208 billionaires. Seventy-seven hail from the United States, more than double the number in any other country.

One important component of wealth, retirement savings, shows an even wider gap between men and women. According to the Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, American women in 2017 held $42,000 in median retirement savings, compared to $123,000 for men. Some 21 percent of women and 12 percent of men have less than $10,000 in retirement accounts. Both pension plan and Social Security payouts reflect in part past earnings. The gender pay gap means women end up with fewer post-retirement resources. In 2017, the $15,000 average annual Social Security benefit for women lagged the benefit for men by $4,000. The smaller retirement nest eggs of women also have to stretch further than male retirement savings, simply because women have longer life expectancies.

Debt also significantly impacts wealth. Crushing student loan burdens drag many young Americans far into the negative side of the wealth line, with the heaviest for female students. Women comprise 56 percent of college students, but hold nearly two-thirds of outstanding student loan debt.

According to the American Association of University Women, black women graduate with the most debt - $30,400, on average - compared to $22,000 for white women and $19,500 for white men.

Gender Poverty Gaps

The gender poverty gap widened over the past 50 years. In 1968, 10.8 percent of women aged 18-64 (6.1 million women) and 7.2 percent of men (3.7 million) in this age group lived below the poverty line. In 2016, 13.4 percent of women in this age group (13.4 million women) were living in poverty, compared to 9.7 percent of adult men (9.4 million men). The poverty threshold for a single person in 2016: $11,880 in annual income. Households led by single women with children had a poverty rate of 35.6 percent, more than twice the 17.3 percent rate for households led by single men with children, according to the National Women's Law Center.

Poverty is a particularly acute problem for women of color, affecting 21.4 percent of Black women, 18.7 percent of Latinas, and 22.8 percent of Native American women, compared to the national poverty rate for white men of 7.0 percent.

Transgender Economic Gaps

Transgender Americans experience poverty at double the rate of the general population, and transgender people of color experience even higher rates. The National Center for Transgender Equality has found that 43 percent of Latino, 41 percent of Native American, 40 percent of multiracial, and 38 percent of Black transgender respondents lived in poverty in 2015.

In 2015, the overall unemployment rate for transgender Americans stood at 15 percent, compared to 5 percent for the general population. The unemployment rate ran even higher for American Indian, Black, Latino, Middle Eastern, and multi-racial transgender Americans.
