The radical perspective, symbolic interactionism is appropriate in examining the relationship between gender socialization and the crisis of masculinity because it emphasizes the role of social interaction and symbolic meanings in shaping gender identities and behaviors. For instance, the protagonist's attempt to act masculine in line with social expectations can be seen in his idolization of Tyler Durden and his participation in fight clubs. Through these exchanges, people build their identities and comprehend what it means to be male or female in a particular cultural setting. Classical theory. Karl Marx's conflict theory is one traditional sociological theory that can be applied to the fight club portrayal of the crisis of masculinity.

Contrary to popular belief, gender norms are socially created and upheld through power dynamics. This is demonstrated by conflict theory. The crisis of masculinity depicted in fight clubs can be interpreted as an outward expression of the tensions and disputes that exist between the dominant and subordinate groups in society. We can better comprehend the structural factors that lead to social injustice and gender equality by applying a conflict lens analysis to the crisis of masculinity. Contemporary theory. Carnot's theory of hegemonic masculinity is suitable modern sociological theory to apply in the crisis of masculinity portrayed in fight clubs.

In fight clubs, the crisis of masculinity is influenced by larger social structures and gender norms in addition to power dynamics.

Men are frequently portrayed in mainstream media such as television and movies as having strong physical features, assertiveness and emotional indifference according to the researchers.

Marginalizing other variations of masculinity and sustaining gender inequality looks at the ways that modern media questions hegemonic masculinity and investigates different masculine identities.

The article finds examples of men who reject the notions of strength and dominance by embracing vulnerability, emotional expression, and non-traditional gender roles through a study of film, television, and online content. The article identifies a trend in media portrayals of men that challenges traditional masculinity and advances inclusive and varied conceptions of manhood. The movie portrayals of traditional masculine ideals and the pressures of men to adhere to them is supported by Article I. However, Article II presents a counter-narrative by arguing that media representation might silence traditional masculinity and advance more inclusive concepts of masculinity. The theories of symbolic interactionism and hegemonic masculinity provide opposing viewpoints on how masculinity is portrayed in the media and how this affects gender norms and identities. These viewpoints are supported by differing opinions in the chosen articles. For Interference, we can draw a number of conclusions about how social issues of the crisis of masculinity is portrayed in movies based on white non-social patterns, different points of views, and supporting theories of the article.
