For years, research concerning masculinities has explored the way
that men have dominated, exploited, and dismantled societies,
asking how we might make sense of marginalized masculinities in the
context of male privilege. This volume asks not only how terms such
as men and masculinity are socially defined and culturally
instantiated, but also how the media has constructed notions of
masculinity that have kept minority masculinities on the margins.
Essays explore marginalized masculinities as communicated through
film, television, and new media, visiting representations and
marginalized identity politics while also discussing the dangers
and pitfalls of a media pedagogy that has taught audiences to
ignore, sidestep, and stereotype marginalized group realities.
While dominant portrayals of masculine versus feminine characters
pervade numerous television and film examples, this collection
examines heterosexual and queer, military and civilian, as well as
Black, Japanese, Indian, White, and Latino masculinities, offering
a variance in masculinities and confronting male privilege as
represented on screen, appealing to a range of disciplines and a
wide scope of readers.
