Description:

A thought-provoking study of some of the important pop myths about masculinity including the horror film, the western, rock music, and pornography. The author makes use of a range of theoretical frameworks derived from feminism, anthropology, psychology, Marxism, and sociology, arguing that popular culture does not simply express male hegemony, but also reveals many images of male defeat, damage, and confusion.
