At a time when traditional dating practices are being replaced with
new ways to meet potential partners, this book provides fresh
insights into how are men responding to new ways of dating. Drawing
upon original research, this book examines a wide range of
contemporary dating practices that includes speed dating, holiday
romances, use of dating apps, online sex seeking and dogging. It
reveals the ways in which men draw upon traditional models of
masculinity to negotiate these changes; but also, the extent to
which men are responding by elaborating new masculinities. Through
an investigation of the dynamics of heterosexuality and
masculinity, this book highlights the importance attached to
authenticity, and the increasing marketization and commodification
of dating. It argues that in a post-truth world, men must also come
to terms with a post-trust dating landscape. Combining rich
empirical material with keen theoretical analysis, this innovative
work will have interdisciplinary appeal for students and scholars
of sociology, media studies, cultural studies, and gender studies.
