Title: Men Doing Feminism (Thinking Gender)
Description: The relation between feminism and men is often presumed to be antagonistic. Men are expected to resist feminism; feminists are assumed to hate men. However, that oppositionality is thrown into question by the increasing numbers of men involved in feminist theory and practice. This collection of essays, most of them published for the first time, presents both enthusiastic and cautionary views of men doing feminism.

The eighteen contributors to this book - women, men, blacks, whites, gays, straights, transsexuals - move the conversation about male feminism beyond simplistic notions of oppositionality between feminism and male identity. Many of the authors use personal narrative to show ways men's lives can shape approaches to doing feminism, and to convey the opportunities and challenges involved in integrating feminism into men's lives.
