BACKGROUND
Men who develop behaviors connected with the model of hegemonic masculinity present several health problems. Previous research has shown the types of problems that men commonly suffer in this regard such as chronic diseases, dietary disorders, and traffic accidents. To combat and overcome this situation, several campaigns, policies and recommendations have been undertaken, and consequently, their influence has been analyzed. However, there have been few investigations into the role of men's friendship in the reduction of these physical health problems. The findings presented in this article are focused on this issue, illustrating the impact of male friendship on the shaping of healthy behaviors.
METHODS
Drawing upon a qualitative-based methodology articulated in a case study of the Men in Dialogue association, located in Spain, the study has followed the premises of the communicative approach, a total of 15 structured online open-ended questionnaires have been performed and analyzed. The median age of the participants is 37.5 years.
RESULTS
The findings show how men involved in Men in Dialogue are promoting a kind of masculine friendship that is improving men's emotional well-being and, consequently, their physical health.

方法
本研究采用定性方法，以位于西班牙的“对话中的男性”协会为案例研究，遵循交际法的前提，共进行了 15 次结构化的在线开放式问卷调查，并进行了分析。参与者的平均年龄为 37.5 岁。
结果
研究结果表明，参与“对话中的男性”的男性正在促进一种男性友谊，这种友谊正在改善男性的情绪健康，从而改善他们的身体健康。
