Migrant men on OnlyFans
Recent research on OnlyFans creators has focused largely on women, leaving men’s participation comparatively underexamined. This conceptual article adopts an interdisciplinary lens to explore what migrant men’s engagement with OnlyFans may mean for them. We consider how the platform opens spaces for migrant men to commodify their bodies and generate income, often by mobilizing racialized and gendered stereotypes whereby such eroticized performanc…

Chopping carrots and becoming ‘real’ men
Since Uzbekistan gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, nationalist discourses have been overtly masculinized, continuing to inform Uzbek males’ daily lives. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Uzbekistan, this article illustrates how Uzbek boys’ domestic relations contribute to the way they learn to (re)produce masculinities, foregrounding a high degree of agency and utility. The analysis uncovered three themes central to the (re)pr…
Breadwinning, migration, and nation-building
Uzbekistan, a former Soviet republic, is currently experiencing dramatic social changes as a result of both Western and Eastern influences. Notions of masculinity and what it means to be a man continue to change for Uzbek men.
