| Sumario: | The issue of discomfort is a subject in full development from the studies of masculinities and is currently a fertile ground to continue generating lines of enquiry, although it is not exempt from criticism and inaccuracies. The present work followed the methodology of scoping review whose aim was to explore the scope of articles and academic texts regarding masculinities in relation to discomfort. The results point to a conceptualization of discomfort as a state between health and illness, whose causes have been identified as conflicts and losses in relation to (non)fulfilment of the mandates of hegemonic masculinity. Its consequences have a direct impact on physical and mental health. The conclusions focus on the reflection of the possibility of discomfort as a watershed for the change in gender relations. |
