The document discusses how toxic masculinity can harm men's mental health. It defines toxic masculinity as amplified masculine traits, such as aggression and suppressing emotions, that harm oneself or others. The constant pressure on men to act masculine according to societal stereotypes can negatively impact mental health. Specifically, the stigma around men seeking help for mental health issues, which is seen as a weakness, means men are less likely to get help and more likely to commit suicide. Changing social norms to promote help-seeking for mental health issues could help address the harmful effects of toxic masculinity.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. WHAT IS TOXIC
MASCULINITY?
To find the meaning of toxic masculinity, we first have to know
what masculinity is. Masculinity is defined as having the
traditional characteristics possessed by a man. The average
traits for someone who is masculine are someone who is
assertive, powerful, in control, and courageous. So with that
definition of masculinity, toxic masculinity is the concept of
masculinity being amplified. Masculinity becomes toxic when it
harms one's mental health or harms someone around them. An
example of toxic masculinity is when men become overtly
aggressive to a female partner to show dominance and power.
Another example of toxic masculinity is never showing any
emotions because emotions are seen as a feminine trait so it can
be portrayed as the man being fragile and showing weakness.
3. Pressures Of Being A Man
"There are rules about how you should dress,
behave and present yourself; how you should
deal with conflict and express your emotions."
(Stratford). The constant pressure of always
acting masculine is a result of society pushing
stereotypes on men. Men aren’t allowed to act
a certain way without their manhood being
questioned. There is constant competition
between males to determine who is more of a
man. Being more or less masculine should not
define how much of a man someone is.
4. Chicago Rapper G-Herbo grew up in the rough neighborhoods of
Chicago, often labeled "Chiraq" because of the murders and violence
that mimics the war in Iraq. In February of 2020, G-Herbo released
the album PTSD which had frequent themes of how growing up in
Chicago and watching his friends get murdered led to him developing
PTSD. His album serves as a reassurance to many who grew up in his
same situation that getting help is normal. In an interview with Fader
Magazine, G-Herbo said, "What inspired me to make it was trying to
bring awareness to a situation that people are desensitized by. We
don't really know that we suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
We don't notice a mental illness. It's normalized. Stuff that we endure
on a day-to-day basis. And I think that this project could really help
people address their problems." G- Herbo has also recently launched
"Svervin' Through Stress", a program which aims to help African
American teens and young adults by providing therapeutic
resources to help their mental health.
"I stayed up the longest when my nigga died
I poured up some more so I can stop from cryin'
Relapsed after quittin' like my second time
But I know I just wanna numb the pain that's
inside"

6. HOW IS TOXIC
MASCULINITY HARMFUL
TO MEN'S MENTAL
HEALTH?
Both men and women face the same problems with depression, anxiety, and mental illnesses yet men are more likely to commit
suicide as a result of these problems. The reason why more men commit suicide is because there is a stigma around getting
help. If a man goes to therapy or trys to help his mental health, they are seen as weak. In an interview titled Speaking of
Psychology: How masculinity can hurt mental health by Audrey Hamilton, Wizdom Powell, an associate professor in the
University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill Department of Health Behavior, says."But in general, when men adhere rigidly to the
kinds of norms that encourage them to not share their emotions, to be sort of relentlessly self-reliant without seeking the help or
support of others. They can have poorer mental health outcomes, particularly more depressive symptomatology because doing
so cuts them off I think from the social networks and social supports that might help them get through a difficult time." In
society's right now around the world, getting help is a sign of weakness. In order to combat toxic masculinities effect on mental
health, we as a society need to make in more normal to get help and treatment. Society needs to push the message that it's okay
not to be okay.
