Dude, You're a F*g

By C. J. Pascoe

Release : 2011-11-01

Genre : Social Science, Books, Nonfiction

Kind : ebook

5 (0 ratings)
High school and the difficult terrain of sexuality and gender identity are brilliantly explored in this smart, incisive ethnography. Based on eighteen months of fieldwork in a racially diverse working-class high school, Dude, You're a F*g sheds new light on masculinity both as a field of meaning and as a set of social practices. C. J. Pascoe's unorthodox approach analyzes masculinity as not only a gendered process but also a sexual one. She demonstrates how the "specter of the f*g" becomes a disciplinary mechanism for regulating heterosexual as well as homosexual boys and how the "f*g discourse" is as much tied to gender as it is to sexuality.
