Chapter 1. From little boys, big boys grow -- Chapter 2. Masculinities and physical power -- Chapter 3. Masculinities and peer culture -- Chapter 4. Masculinities and the othering of females and 'the feminine' -- Chapter 5. The affective intensities of masculinity in shaping gendered experience.

"We have many studies of masculinities among boys or youth; few of them follow through to later years. Amanda Keddie's book does just that. It's a fascinating contemporary account of a working-class boy growing from childhood to adolescence and adulthood. Keddie's focus on the tangled emotions involved in bodily power, peer-group life, and views of girls and women, gives exceptional insights into change and persistence in masculinities". Raewyn Connell, Professor Emerita, University of Sydney and author of Masculinities. This book tells a story of masculinity through the experiences of one boy, 'Adam'. From four different studies and time periods, it tracks moments of significance in his life over a period of 20 years. These moments highlight the ways in which Adam is both drawn towards and away from a hegemonic masculinity of physical toughness, domination, competition and an opposition to 'the feminine'. The book is set against the backdrop of a long history of contentious gender politics in Australia and globally but particularly responds to the renewed attention to the social construction of masculinities in the current #MeToo climate. Against this backdrop, nuanced and longitudinal accounts of boys' and men's experiences of masculinity are significant because they can offer insight into the complex bodily, social, economic, and historical forces that configure masculinities. Such understandings are important in our endeavours as those who educate, support and work with boys and men to transform gender inequalities. Amanda Keddie is a Professor of Education at Deakin University. Her research examines the processes, practices and conditions that can impact on the pursuit of social justice in education settings. Amanda's qualitative research has been based within Australia, England and the USA and is strongly informed by feminist theory with a particular interest in issues of masculinity.
