Embodied Heterosexual Masculinities, Part 1: Confluent Intimacies, Emotions and Health
In: Sociology compass, Band 6, Heft 2, S. 134-150
ISSN: 1751-9020
AbstractThis and an accompanying article (Robertson and Monaghan 2012) constitute a developmental 'think piece' on embodied heterosexual masculinities, emotions and health. After highlighting the imbrications of heterosexual intimacy, hegemonic masculinity and health – alongside a note on the relevance and limitations of existing literature – our discussion includes: a critical acknowledgement of (different) feminist scholarship and queer theory; reflections on the 'pure relationship' and 'confluent' or 'liquid love'; the 'individualisation thesis' and the rise of 'abstract knowledge'; the separation of love from sex as a possible masculine ruse; corporeality, eroticism and the rationalisation of sex. In conclusion, we underscore the need for more research on embodied masculinities, heterosexualities and emotions.

Constructing hegemonic masculinities in South Africa: The discourse and rhetoric of heteronormativity
In: Gender and language, Band 6, Heft 1, S. 47-77
ISSN: 1747-633X
This paper considers how local and regional representations of hegemonic masculinity are (re)produced, and how men's gender identities are constituted through situated interaction in South Africa. It points toward the important role played by the discourse and rhetoric of heteronormativity among these men in hegemonic sense-making, and in particular, the underlying discursive practices of performative/intimate (hetero)sexuality and homosexual rejection/acceptance. An attempt is made to account for complexity and diversity in this sense-making across intersecting social categories such as ethnicity and social class. Focus group discussion among Afrikaans, English and Xhosa men was transcribed and backtranslated where necessary. A technique of discourse analysis that considers the rhetorical aspects of text is developed through the introduction of norm-referencing rhetorical devices. Findings highlight the extent to which practices of both compliance and resistance contribute toward the (re)production of masculinities.
On-line constructions of metrosexuality and masculinities: A membership categorization analysis
In: Gender and language, Band 6, Heft 2, S. 379-403
ISSN: 1747-633X
The relatively recent growth of identity categories for men participating in non-conventional masculine activities can be linked to contemporary consumption and lifestyle opportunities (Gill et al., 2005). While there have been various studies pertaining to media representations of 'metrosexuality', 'new' masculinities, and the marketing of health and beauty products to men, we currently know little about how men define, ascribe to and disavow contemporary identity markers such as 'metrosexual'. The existence of on-line forums dedicated to the discussion of metrosexuality provides an obvious opportunity to examine contemporary masculinities. In this paper we report on a study of one such internet forum, using membership categorisation analysis (Sacks, 1972, 1992) to investigate the deployment of metrosexuality and related identity categories. Our analysis highlights the masculinised parameters through which metrosexuality is taken up (and rejected), which include notions of vanity, conspicuous consumption, professional status and sexual prowess. The continued influence of hegemonic forms of masculinity in this context is discussed.
