There is a strong correlation between these high-risk behaviors and the ideology of toxic masculinity (Wagner, 2015).…

There is a general consensus among scholars that a gender disparity exists in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields (Moss-Racusin et al., 2018). With men holding a large proportion of faculty positions in STEM departments, they occupy a unique position wherein they may utilize their privileged status and serve as allies…

Using the chokehold as a theoretical framework to analyze the gendered and sexualized vulnerabilities of Black males, I place historical records in conversation with the temporal moment, particularly the allegations of sexual violence committed against Black males at the University of Michigan. In doing so, I conducted a critical discourse…

This article is concerned with the source of men's invisible advantage in the male-dominated disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). It is suggested that this advantage has been obscured by combining sponsorship and mentoring. The research asks: Are men or women most likely to be mentored? Is it possible to…

The outdoor domain has frequently been identified as one where women's skills and competences were undervalued compared with those of men. The aim of the study was to explore how men and women interact in the context of an educational wilderness expedition.

Growing attention to Black men's development and outcomes has encouraged scholars to further consider how the intersection of race and gender influence these students' collegiate experiences (McGuire, Berhanu, Davis, & Harper, 2014; Pelzer, 2016). However, "it is one thing to study Black men's gendered experiences (e.g., gendered racism)…

This manuscript draws from a naturalistic participant-observation study, focused on Midwestern United States men's experiences in a short-term study abroad (STSA) programme in Spain, exploring gendered performances during the course. As global student engagement in study abroad programming continues to increase, gender demographics remains…

Though much has been written about the benefits that Black sororities and fraternities offer its members as well as broader communities within and beyond the ivory towers, comparatively fewer studies have addressed how these organizations interact with men's constructions and embodiments of masculinities. Moreover, even fewer studies examine the…

There is little data on the perception of LGBTQ constituencies toward feminism. This research team conducted focus groups on campus and within the surrounding community on perspectives of LGBTQ students, university-employed gay men, community-based transgender individuals, and community-based gay men toward feminism.

Since the emergence of feminist scholarship, feminist theorists have advanced diverse perspectives regarding the role of examining men and masculinity to advance gender equity. These contributions, however, are often marginalized and selectively applied in men and masculinities scholarship and praxis. This article provides an in-depth overview of…

Extensive feminist critique of lad culture has raised serious concerns about its role in the sexualisation and objectification of women; its association with 'pack-like' boisterous behaviour and pressured heavy drinking of alcohol; and its use of banter, irony and infantile humour to provide a protective shield for sexist and homophobic practices.…

Work-integrated learning (WIL) affords students opportunities to apply skills and knowledge to practical work placements. Students potentially learn professional behaviours appropriate to their chosen industry sector. However, students may also face challenges they may not be prepared to navigate. One of these is gender bias due to assumptions…

Data from 743 college men who participated in a randomized controlled trial were analyzed. Simple and multiple-mediation models were estimated, using several…
