1.) The main male characters behave in a very "hoe" like why, they think of females as an object to have fun with only. They only respect other males if their behavios is "masculine" just like the main characters. The media and mostly everything we can think of project masculinity to be a player guys who can gt with as much females as they can.
2.) Well both bonds are emphasised, the males are good friends that trust each other with telling each other how they feel even if its kind of hard for them to do. And when it comes to male female relatonships normally males can be true to the females if they have feelings for them if not . And thats what the movie shows even is that even if its hard to do, so it kind of what David Grazina.
3.) Well to me the ultimate message is that no matter what ideas are projected towards males about what masculinity is you should always stay true to yourself and how you feel.
You make a very interesting observations regarding the almost equal emphasis on the male to female, and male to male relationships in The Wedding Crashers. This relates to your connection, and do correct me if I misread this part, to Grazian's article in which he concludes, based on observations, that men have strong bonds with other men and this is important for them to feel masculine. Also, you imply this in your response to the first question when you mention the "respect of other men."Think about this a bit more, and consider how your observations relate to what you identify as the ultimate message of the film. Is the movie encouraging men to be more aware of their feelings and learn intimacy by fostering close bonds with other men/their friends? Are there dangers to being very close friends with men?
