How male beauty standards have changed over time: redefining “sexy”

Share

Men’s ideas about what is beautiful have changed a lot over the past 30 years. A new trend on social media suggests unusual standards for looks, which has caused a lot of discussion.

In the 1990s, Patrick Swayze came on the scene. He was known for looking both rough and elegant. His sex attraction went beyond his looks; he was full of fire and energy.

Keanu Reeves’ title in 1994 made him even more of a star. George Clooney’s win in 1997 showed how loyal and devoted he was.

In 1999, Richard Gere’s movie at 50 broke standard ideas about old age. Pierce Brosnan’s win in 2001 was about family values.

Popular on social media today are “hot rodent boyfriends”—men with sharp features and their own special charm.

Their unique looks change what it means to be “sexy,” focussing on individuality and character instead of standard manhood. As beauty standards change, so does society’s idea of what makes a man beautiful.
