Abstract
This chapter examines the kinds of qualities and behaviors that men are equated with: how oppositional constructs contrast ‘good’ men with ‘bad’ men; present masculine identity in terms of sets of complementary binaries that treat men as homogeneous (predictable) beings, and promote an overarching ‘gender differences’ discourse (Sunderland in Gendered Discourses. Palgrave Macmillan, Basingstoke, 2004).
