We explored the depiction of various types of male relationships in the chosen movies and discussed the effects masculinity has on their dynamics. The prime focus of our research was analyzing how four masculinity theories correlated with six different types of male relationships in the Disney films. In Peter Pan and The Lion King there was conflict between characters if one character possess hybrid masculinity and the other hegemonic masculinity. Peter Pan and Scar’s predominantly hybrid masculinity caused conflict with Captain Hook and Mufasa’s hegemonic personality. Misunderstanding of each other caused consistent division between their relationships to the point of no resolve. Movies like Beauty and the Beast, Tangled, Finding Nemo and Brother Bear displayed a theme specific to rite of passage. The Beast breaking the curse, Rapunzel’s hair being cut, Nemo’s physical test, and Kenai saving his cub brother all demonstrated the power that a rite of passage gives to relationships. Without these life altering moments, these Disney relationships wouldn’t exist. Compensatory masculinity describes relationships like Mr. Incredible and Mirage, Judy and Nick, and Maui and Moana. Each of these Disney characters go through a process of exaggerating their masculinity. Mr. Incredible exaggerates his masculinity to the point of almost dying in his fight with Mirage. Nick maintains a life of crime to be perceived as a bad fox, even though he is kind. Lastly, Maui carries around his hook like a power trident to not seem weak. All these male characters have adversity throughout the film until they realize that their power is not in their masculinity. Overall, masculinity has a major role in the world around us. Due to Disney movies being a cornerstone in our society, their depiction of masculinity has a great affect on what we deem proper in the relationships we have with people on a professional level, in our family, love life, and friends. Because Disney has chosen to portray a variety of masculinities, it sends a message to viewers that there is not one single form of masculinity that is superior or correct; rather, it is acceptable to demonstrate whatever masculinity an individual feels they fit best.
