At the end if the 18th century men relinquished beauty and fashion ( the great masculine renunciation). 1930"s men in orida -> wear colourful robes on holiday. 1980"s mens fashion magazine (fashion becomes acceptable for men) These mags say its not what u do but how u look that makes u masculine. The metrosexual (can be masculine but still involved with fashion without being seen as feminine) Anti-bullying has become really big in the last few years. Social media propel men and fashion (by seeing men on social media in these styles gives men more con dence to try these looks too) 1: prestigious imitation: how to act like a man e. g g. i joe -> increase in size. from masculine to hyper masculine e. g super man 1955 now ->buffer.
