The chapters in this edited collection examine how the culture of
masculinity intersects with issues of health, homophobia, and the
suppression and silencing of anxieties about body image among men
and boys. Examining the bodily dividends and trade-offs associated
with male participation in physical activity is central to
understanding how educators in particular might better engage all
boys in healthy life practices, not only those privileged by
muscularity and physicality. Contributions explore evidence of
intimidation and body fears that is largely unheard and unexplored
in locker rooms and classrooms. Introducing critical perspectives
emerging from current evidence-based international research to shed
light on curricular and policy initiatives aimed at producing
healthy children, this book will powerfully inform and provoke
discussion.
