At the beginning of Macbeth we see masculinity characterized as someone who is physically and mentally strong , and who puts his needs before those of others . We see this illustrated throughout the play we see what a man is through the eyes of the Macbeth’s. Lady Macbeth does her best to convince Macbeth that a man is defined by doing whatever it takes to be on top .

Later on we see lady Macbeth’s influence in the way Macbeth views manhood.
