Funded Activity Summary
The pressures of modern manhood. Mapping the impact of homophobia on the lives of Australian men. this study will construct a detailed map of the impact of homophobia on men;s behaviour, lifestyles and risk-taking (gay or not). It explores the possibility that through devices like taboo and loss of face homophobia can (i) make certain behaviours and life patterns unpalatable and alienate men from safer, healthier behaviours; (ii) block retreat from danger : and (iii) promote risky, antisocial, hyper-masculine posturing. from the innovative perspective of the interplay of homophobia with masculinity, we expect to uncover key insights into how homophobia makes an important contribution to the pressures of modern manhood.Funded Activity Details
