What is masculinity? Drawing on psychoanalysis and an understanding
of ideology, Easthope shows how the masculine myth forces men to
try to be masculine and only masculine, denying their feminine
side. In an original contribution to the understanding of gender,
he analyzes masculinity as it is represented in a wide range of
mass media --films, television, newspapers, pop music, and pop
novels. Why are two men in a John Wayne western more concerned with
each other than with the women in their lives? Is aggressive male
banter a sign that men hate or love each other? Why does a jealous
man always have to see his rival? Written in lively, witty, and
accessible style, What a Man's Gotta Do is certain to become
controversial but essential reading.
