About the book

"Edited by two of the field's most prominent researchers, this best-selling reader on men and masculinity contains the most current articles available. Organized around themes that define masculinity, this reader takes a life-course perspective, using the idea that men (as well as women) are 'gendered' and that this gendering process is a central experience for men. Twenty-four readings are new to this edition. New topics include: being a male, pro-feminist college instructor; the meaning of being labeled a 'fag;' growing up as a 'sissy' (gender non-conforming) boy; ritualized homosexual behavior among the 'Trafs, ' a subculture of the Nacirema; sexual assault in military academies; male cheerleaders; drag queens; fathering in modern American Society; images of masculinity in beer and liquor ads; sexuality and sports talk radio; and the culture of aggression and violence among ice hockey players."--Jacket.
