“…First of all, studying marginalized men's health and health disparities is innovative within the developing area of men's health and men's health nursing. Porche and Willis (2004) defined men's health as "a holistic, comprehensive approach that addresses the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual life experiences and health needs of men throughout the life span" (p. 254). Furthermore, they suggest that issues of social justice surrounding race/ethnicity, class, allocation of resources, health disparities, and other concerns, like the meaning of masculinity and manhood, are important areas to address in the men's health nursing movement.…”

Given the current focus of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) on eliminating health disparities among minority populations, a substantive body of culturally competent scholarship about marginalized men's health disparities is needed to add knowledge about the complex features, processes, and relationships underlying health disparities, marginality, men's health, interventions, and clinical outcomes. Marginalized men in the United States suffer disproportionately from mental and chronic health problems. Historically disadvantaged, their voices have not been privileged in health care and clinical discourses. Utilizing the concepts of marginalization and culturally competent scholarship, an integrative framework has been created to facilitate clinicians and scholars in envisioning and advancing critical scholarship related to marginalized men's health disparities.

“…2 The WHO defined health, in 1948, as "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." 32 In the context of men's health, it carries the same meaning as to achieve a high standard of complete well-being for men.…”

Men’s health discourse has been around for more than 2 decades. The higher mortality rates and the shorter life expectancy in Asian men compared with their women counterparts show the disadvantaged status of men’s health. Thus, discussions on men’s health should address their health needs and not be confined to sex-specific male urology and reproductive health. In Asia, assessing men’s health needs is challenging because of the vast differences in the socioeconomic status and the diverse culture among its member countries. Although, the epidemiology of men’s health provides the focus for what to address in improving men’s health, having an optimal strategy requires the understanding of men’s health-seeking behaviors and the social determinants surrounding them. Thus, public health approaches addressing health behaviors and health promotion in the society should be one of the keys in improving men’s health status. Locally relevant information is needed to inform effective public health approaches.

“…It is a particular concern for men; however, men's health issues directly and indirectly impact women as it affects their fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers. Therefore, men's health is not a gender-exclusive phenomenon but one that transcends the individual, family, community, institutions, and society as a whole (Porche & Willis, 2004). HIV infection is one disease process that continues to exert a significant impact on men's health.…”
