Abstract
ABSTRACT This article examines the regional experiences of men in reserved occupations in Glasgow and Clydeside during the Second World War. Studies of masculinity in wartime Britain have addressed the experiences of civilian men, but little exploration has taken place of the complexity of masculine identities in different regions. The research presented examines how the experiences of reserved men in Glasgow and Clydeside relate to discourses of hegemonic masculinities and gender identities, and to rhetoric on social change and life on the home front in wartime Britain, shedding new light on the masculine identities of male civilian workers in a specific locality.
