What is Jackson Katz’s perspective on Masculinity? Jackson Katz’s perspective on masculinity is that masculinity is learned, and given. Jackson argues that men are not naturally violent, but they learn the act of violence from their families, communities and the powerful media system that provide a steady stream of images that describe masculinity as connected with power, control and dominance (Jhally, Ericsson & Talreja, 1999). Is masculinity about individual choice or cultural tendencies and how is that the case? Based on the content of the video by Jackson, masculinity is about cultural tendencies. This is the case since the push to adapt to cultural principles of violent masculinity is influenced by racial, ethnic, and class lines rather than individual choice.
