This notion of "my culture is particularly rigid with masculinity" makes me laugh. Not because I disagree, because I see it in my own culture, but because it's so true for every culture. Every culture will say that about their own. Man is ultimately a construction of a culture but ofc he is also a product of evolution. I take an existentialist view on the matter - we are thrown into this life and its up to a man to make himself a man - a bit like Simone de Bouvier's mantra of "you become a woman".

I should certainly read Deida's work though
