Ailments and illnesses between the lines: men recounting their experiences in fatherhood ; Malestares y enfermedades entre líneas: hombres que narraron sus experiencias en la paternidad

Abstract

This article recovers the experiences of some men, in relation to their being a man and fatherhood, analyzing the possible relationship between these elements and health and disease. The purpose is to include men's health on the public policy agenda and, among them, those who are fathers. Not only because in Mexico there is a higher incidence of deaths of men than of women at productive and reproductive ages, but because by making them visible, behaviors and attitudes that affect people close to men could be rethought. ; En este artículo se recuperan las experiencias de algunos varones, en relación a su ser hombre y la paternidad, analizando la posible relación entre estos elementos y la salud y enfermedad. El propósito es incluir en la agenda de las políticas públicas la salud de los varones y entre ellos, los que son padres. No solo porque en México hay una mayor incidencia de muertes de hombres que de mujeresen edades productivas y reproductivas, sino porque al visibilizarlos se podrían replantear comportamientos y actitudes que afectan a las personas cercanas a los varones.
