A man is a creation of nature blend with some gentleness, understanding, and love. However, the majority of people have confined it into certain traits that they look in a man, such as being fearless, robust, assertive, and always an in-charge of something. However, today’s men are more than just some masculine norms, and as American Writer Elbert Hubbard once said: “THE STRONGER A MAN IS, THE MORE GENTLE HE CAN AFFORD TO BE.”

This year we mark 27th International Men’s Day celebration and the theme is ‘Making a Difference for Men and Boys’. Numerous Indian brands are celebrating this day to build awareness and change social perception.

Let us celebrate this day as a reminder to understand a man’s significance in society. Especially in an Indian Society, this day is an alarm to focus on men’s and boy’s health, refining gender relations, highlighting gender disparity, male suicide numbers, stopping male abuse, and more. Whether its Men’s Day or Women’s day, these days are breaking all types of stereotypical norms and dichotomies, however, there are still more to go.
