Abstract :Raewyn Connell argues that there are multiple masculinities functioning at any given time. These masculinities are not types but patterns of practice and meaning structured by social, historical, and cultural conditions. David Buchbinder instructs that masculinities are relational and derive from each other (as well as femininities) their meanings, practices, values and significance. And Lynne Segal asserts that they are subject to change. It has been argued by Raewyn Connell that there is a hegemonic masculinity, an ideal rather than a reality, specific to particular cultural, social and historical settings. Given this, some masculinities are subordinated, marginalized, and work to protest the hegemony and others. These masculinities overlap and are not mutually exclusive. Mark Moss concludes that there are now more variations than ever before.Keywords : Media, Masculinities, Other
