What is the new "masculinity" that Generation Z wants in movies? U.S. survey showing "image of men who are not isolated" is a hot topic
Isn't "Rambo" a good example? Gen Z and Gen Alpha have changed their culture a lot over the past few years, some for the better and others for the worse. It is something that every generation faces in one way or another. However, according to a recent survey, they also want to change the shape of "masculinity" portrayed in movies. The Center for Scholars and Storytellers (CSS), a psychology research based at the University of California, Los Angeles, conducted a survey of 1,500 young people aged 10~24 in the United States.

According to the published findings, the new generation "wants to reinterpret the way men engage with the lives of others in a new light." "Whether it was a father, a mentor, a coach, or a teacher, they all had the same opinion." The study, titled "Evolving Masculinity," shows that this age group (mostly those born after 1997) would like to see fathers who "enjoy parenting by showing love for their children" in film and television. In particular, the youngest group has a strong belief in this way. Parenting comes with emotional pressure, especially on oneself. 46% of survey participants said they would like to see "men seeking help, including their own mental health" in movies and dramas. In other words, about half of the participants believe that this element is essential in the story, but it is not fully depicted. "These expressions of men's emotions lack subtlety and realism," Wools told The Hollywood Reporter. "Young people will make it a laughing stock and reject it." However, there are also voices on the Internet that make this survey itself a joke or reject it. The Hollywood Reporter article uses Sylvester Stallone's portrayal of Rambo in the top image and title, which has been used as a joke on X. Rambo...
