Description
In this compelling study of machismo in Mexico City, Matthew Gutmann overturns many stereotypes of male culture in Mexico and offers a sensitive and often surprising look at how Mexican men see themselves, parent their children, relate to women, and talk about sex. This tenth anniversary edition features a new preface that updates the stories of the book's key protagonists.

[A] wholly other vision of Mexican gender relations emerges." - Jose Limon, American Anthropologist "This book does for the study of men what two generations of feminist anthropologists have done for the study of women." - Lynn Stephen, author of Zapotec Women"
