This collection highlights the fluidity of masculinity in
American popular culture at the turn of the new millennium and
beyond by examining possibilities for male identity formation. Each
chapter mines American popular culture theatre, film, literature,
music, advertising, internet content, television, photography, and
current events to pose questions about the process of gender
creation and the contestation of masculinities as constantly
changing political forms. The first section explores masculinities
within late capitalism and includes studies of Seinfeld, Queer Eye
for the Straight Guy, and reality television. The second section
addresses identity when masculinity intersects with race, religion,
disability, and sexuality, including chapters on Barack Obama, the
O.J. trial, and popular movies."
