Our response to the essays from Griffith (2022), Liang (2022), and Rogers (2022) addresses three themes we identified in the articles. First, feminist epistemology continues to play a critical role in the development of the study of men and masculinities. Second, structural change is essential to produce healthy masculinities, but we need to better understand the relationship between creating a critical mass of men and bringing about systemic, cultural, and institutional change. And, finally, even though all men must contend with hegemonic socialization, we must also recognize that men of different social identities stand in different relation to hegemonic masculinity.
