- Description
- Masculinity as warrior is central to the understanding of military cultures. Such images of maleness are often presented by historians, academics, feminists and film writers, to name a few, as fixed, unambiguous and noncontradictory. Moreover this reading of masculinity as warrior involves a clear distinction between the protectors and protected, soldiers and civilians, warmongers and peacelovers, and masculinity and femininity.
