Traditional ideas about masculinity often discourage men from expressing vulnerability or seeking help, which can negatively affect their mental health. Men might feel pressured to conform to ideals of stoicism and strength, leading to stress, anxiety, or depression. These norms can create barriers to accessing mental health support and prevent men from forming meaningful, supportive relationships. Challenging these outdated views and promoting a more flexible understanding of masculinity can help men feel more comfortable expressing their emotions and seeking help when needed.
