findings of research about the precarious nature of manhood (Vandello, Bosson, Cohen, Burnaford, & Weaver, 2008) show that in response to masculinity threats (e.g., feedback according to which one possesses feminine traits), men attempt to revalidate their manhood.
The finding that one way in which men respond to such threats is by sexualizing women (Dahl, Vescio, & Weaver, 2015) points to the motivation to reaffirm one’s manhood.
