Jay Clarkson's article about how masculinity has changed definitely was an interesting article for me. I never really took the time to see how masculinitly has changed but after reading this it was an eye opener. I definitely see the concept of how in previous years a man's success was based on how much hard work he actually did, now it is more on looks; even then the "look" has changed. I chose this picture of Justin Timberlake as an example because he is definitely a man that seems to be worried about how he looks versus the actual "hard work" he does.
and him being gay is also really interesting, right? masculinity is at least partially now disconnected from heterosexuality....see GQ and Esquire
