   Are men and masculinity connected?

   What is the difference between men and masculinity?

   • Men and masculinities are different things, and while they are connected, all things that men do are not masculine, and all things masculine are not necessarily done by men. Men are the corporeal beings identified as such, usually ultimately based on genitalia and body; however, maleness is also socially constructed (Bing and Bergvall 1996).
