WRESTLING WITH MANHOOD: Boys, Bullying and Battering

An in-depth analysis of professional wrestling and its relationship to sexism, homophobia, violence against women, and bullying in our schools. Richly illustrating their analysis with numerous examples, Sut Jhally (Dreamworlds) and Jackson Katz (Tough Guise) draw the connection between professional wrestling and the construction of contemporary masculinity. Designed to engage the wrestling fan as well as the cultural analyst, WRESTLING WITH MANHOOD will provoke spirited debate about some of our most serious social problems.
