In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke explores why certain jobs are perceived as more masculine than others. Not to tell men which careers to pursue, but to examine the underlying traits that cause society to associate masculinity with particular forms of work. Some roles demand physical strength, some require courage and risk, others carry the heavy burden of provision or leadership. The job itself isn’t what makes a man masculine, it’s the responsibility and character required to perform it.
This episode breaks down how work reflects identity, how challenge shapes a man, and why masculine virtues show up differently across different career paths. The takeaway is simple: masculinity is not found in the title you hold, but in the weight you are willing to carry and the standard you hold yourself to in the role you’ve chosen.
