The phallic mask that men have to wear impedes to be in contact with their own internal processes, as well as their affects. The reflection on masculinity confronts us with the necessity to deconstruct it as a sociopolitical category, built in the historical process. Lacan defines masculinity as a universal concept in opposition to femininity, which becomes a particular concept (“There is no such thing as a woman”) in his theory. According to his definition, each woman exists with her own specificity and her subjectivity cannot be generalized to other women. In a similar way, masculinity should be considered as being specific to each man. It becomes necessary to signify the difference between men and women in the symbolic order and define their specificity, refusing that the category of “women” be dissolved in that of “men”.
