Abstract

ABSTRACT In this short article I provide a response to Steven Roberts, Karla Elliott and Brittany Ralph’s reply to my recently published article, Men and masculinities: a continuing debate on change. I address Roberts, Elliott and Ralph’s critique over the limitations of comparing the frameworks of inclusive and hybrid masculinities, and I respond to their claims over the use of intersectionality to account for the lack of change among less privileged men. Throughout the article I highlight the need for analysing men and masculinities in relation to wider systems of inequality and power hierarchies between men and women on the one hand, and among men on the other. I also keep insisting that research on changing men and masculinities should rely on intersectional, multi-layered analyses that take into careful consideration the contextual, interactional and situational factors that may affect men’s practices and (re)constructions of masculinity.
