#RealMen

“Real Men Dont Cry.”

Over 6 million men suffer from depression every year, and over 40% of them have never spoken about it because they’re too embarrassed. Dove believes physical and mental health directly correspond and are equally as important. These ethics have led to extremely successful campaigns such as #realbeauty campaign that discussed women’s body image.  In this project, I decided to flip the narrative and show the effects of toxic masculinity.
