Queer Men's Narrative challenges society to re-think its idea of what being a man entails, and how such concepts limits our freedom to be, live and understand each other.Queer Men's Narrative demonstrates that at the heart of it, queer men and straight men are very much alike in how they respond to society's pressure and definition of what a man should be. The selected narratives show some queer men, like their straight counterparts, hold on to sexism, toxic masculinity and patriarchy as a way to justify their masculinity within a society that prescribes such a role and expectations. Queer Men's Narrative challenges society at large to re-think its idea of what being a man entails and what this means for society itself and how such concepts limits men and women's freedom to be, to live and to understand each other.
