(Un)covering Men formed part of a journalistic bid to see whether
it is possible to write differently about different men. The
collected journalism in this book breaks away from overused
archetypes and explores how men can be covered in the media in all
their diversity and guises. By positioning itself within a broader
health media context, the coverage in this book shows how narrowly
defined notions of masculinity often facilitate and reinforce
risk-taking behaviour. Between 2009 and 2011, journalism fellows of
the HIV & AIDS Media Project undertook in-depth research
looking to write about men, masculinity and HIV in a new way. The
result is this compendium of articles, blogs and photo essays that
showcases a diversity of men - each facing a unique context and
dealing with sexual health and relationships differently.
Structured around four central themes, the four sections in this
book bring men's varied roles in the HIV epidemic to the fore - men
as lovers, men as partners and fathers, men who have sex with men
and men's relationship to traditional and medical male
circumcision.
