Fascinating find, Lindsay. I think it's really impressive, the way Chad States combines the images with the words of the participants. A great way to show the large variety of ways that masculinity (and gender in general) can be displayed and thought about.
This almost makes me want to take a pic of myself with a similar description.
I think it's important to clearly articulate one's masculinity - not to define it in terms of what it isn't, i.e. "not girly," but actual characteristics. Or how you see yourself.
