Define masculinity (what being a man means) today by using an example of a person who best defines
masculinity to you. You should define masculinity and introduce the person you chose in your introduction.
Then, your thesis should list what elements define this person as related to the foundational ideas of gender
we've discussed so far in the class.
Then, in your essay you should offer specific descriptions of how this person reflects your concept of
masculinity by referencing back to at least 3 people, ideas, or examples we've discussed so far this semester.
You can use anyone for your example of masculinity including but not limited to celebrities, family members,
friends, professors, or anyone else you know about.
SAMPLE THESIS - Arnold Schwarzenegger best defines masculinity today because he reflects the ideal form
of man as defined by the Ancient Greeks, he was a power leader as the Ancient Romans expected, and he is
intelligent as Bocaccio defined in the Decameron.
