Between Men and Feminism - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book discusses how two decades of feminism have affected the way men define their own masculinities and how they have responded in their social, sexual and political lives to the challenges posed by the evolving feminist critiques of patriarchy and maleness itself. The collection contains a diversity of approaches and viewpoints from academics, a poet, an educational researcher, and the members of an active men's group. Gay issues feature prominently, as do psychoanalytical views, most of which are marked by a practical and personal outlook. The book attempts to show men finding their own way within the spaces feminism has opened to them. It shows men rediscovering their own gendered voices and participating in the transformation of controlling ideologies in their daily lives. These accounts should appeal to students in the social sciences and gender studies, as well as to all men responding to the feminist challenge.
