How to use "Men" in context?
In regards to "men," there is no single answer to this question as everyone has their own take on the matter. However, some general truths can be assumed about men. For example, they are generally tougher and more physically capable than women, and they tend to be more assertive and independent. They are also more likely to be focused on their careers and to value achievement. However, even with these general truths, there is plenty of scope for variation within the male gender.
For example, some men are very independent, others are more dependent on others, and still others are somewhere in between.
