dc.description.notesAbstract: Feminist scholars have long made the important and valid critique<br/ >that nearly all knowledge production not explicitly labeled feminist has implicitly<br/ >studied men. Nonetheless, feminist scholars and activists are increasingly<br/ >recognizing the importance of explicitly investigating men as gendered beings.<br/ >This paper argues that gender-aware studies of men and masculinities are in fact<br/ >necessary for an intersectional analysis of gender relations, and that a better understanding<br/ >of masculinity is necessary to reduce men's perpetration of violence<br/ >and increase support for gender justice. It provides five mutually reliant reasons<br/ >why studies of men and masculinities are necessary for understanding gender relations<br/ >and beneficial for feminist projects for gender justice: that superordinate<br/ >categories tend to go unmarked and thereby uncritiqued; that gender is relational;<br/ >that investigating the social construction of masculinity calls men's superordinate<br/ >status into question; that masculinity is one of the primary social forces currently<br/ >stalling egalitarian social change; and that investigating masculinity highlights<br/ >contradictions and cleavages where masculinity can be most effectively attacked. <br/ >Creative Commonsen
