For more than three decades, the women's movement and its scholars
have exhaustively studied women's complex history, roles, and
struggles. In Manhood in America: A Cultural History, Fourth
Edition, author Michael Kimmel argues that it is time for men to
rediscover their own evolution. Drawing on a myriad of sources, he
demonstrates that American men have been eternally frustrated by
their efforts to keep up with constantly changing standards. Kimmel
contends that men must follow the lead of the women's movement; it
is only by mining their past for its best qualities and worst
excesses that men will free themselves from the constraints of the
masculine ideal.
