Hegemonic masculinity is defined as the condition in which men are dominant and privileged, and this dominance and privilege is invisible (Conley, pg 287). I think that hegemonic masculinity was more prevalent before the twentieth century. Once the start of a new century, huge changes started happening in the world, and from what I’ve noticed, a lot in the United States. In the United States, women started having a voice in the early twentieth century. This eventually led to the amendments getting made the US Constitution giving females the right to vote, etc. Then, with the help of labor unions, female’s finally got income equality, and increasingly progress has been made
