Male Myth
( Paul Theroux)
According to Theroux man is manly. To be superior and its very nature is destructive. Emotionally damaging and socially harmful. Being a man means to be stupid, be unfeeling obedient and soldierly. Men usually are encouraged from little to act a certain way. If we didn’t have manliness we probably wouldn’t have sports.
Chicano
(Maxine Baca Zinn)
According to Maxine, being a Spanish male is to be a macho. An aggressive person because of their culture and skin color. Very old fashion masculinity where men controlled everything. To be is a person with superiority especially towards women. They are the ones who have the last words and expect respect.
Similarities
Both Male Myth and Chicano have mentioned very similar things. Such as how being a man is to be an aggressive person. To show fear into people and feel superior. Both literatures show how when you’re a man you above a women.
