Synopsis "Men, Caregiving and the Media: The dad Dilemma (Interdisciplinary Research in Gender) "

Analysing diverse media representations of men who provide primary care to their children, this book demonstrates how the practice of fatherhood - and of masculinity - is changing, and the ways media representations sensationalise and reinforce gender inequities in regards to carework.This book examines disparities between practices of carework amongst heterosexual couples and media representations of men who provide primary care, whilst also including a discussion of media accounts of primary caregiving amongst gay couples. The book also provides a detailed analysis of the relationship between care labor and public understandings of masculinity. Assessing whether media accounts of fathers who provide primary care undermine egalitarian approaches to the division of labor amongst heterosexual couples, this book is a vital intervention into public discourse about masculinity, fathering and caregiving.This book will an important resource for students, researchers, educators and practitioners as it brings together a range of in-depth literatures, and empirical analyses to provide a clear overview of contemporary fathering. It will be essential reading in the fields of gender studies and masculinity studies, together with sociology of families, cultural studies, social psychology and social policy.
