A male feminist walks into a bar, because it was set so low: The pedestal effect and the economy of gratitude in feminist spaces”
Men in feminist spaces often find themselves the recipients of disproportionate gratitude and attention—along with other persistent effects of male privilege that I have elsewhere termed the Pedestal Effect —despite this running counter to both prevailing feminist ideologies and the desires of the men themselves. Sociologist Arlie Hochschild described a similar economy of gratitude wherein low expectations led to heightened valuation of married m…
Men, masculinities, and gender‐based violence: The broadening scope of recent research
Men's relationships to gender‐based violence (GBV) have long been an area of sociological inquiry, but until recently men have primarily been framed as perpetrators of violence against women. More recently, research on men and GBV has broadened to include studying men as victims/survivors, as investigators and law enforcement officers, as passive or active bystanders, and as allies in working to address this social problem. We review this researc…

Seeing the Invisible Knapsack: Feminist Men’s Strategic Responses to the Continuation of Male Privilege in Feminist Spaces
Privilege has been primarily conceptualized as invisible to those whom it benefits, but research on whiteness has suggested this is an oversimplification. Through interviews with fifty-two men who engage in gender justice projects and twelve women who work with them, this article investigates the complex ways some men do see, understand, and critique male privilege, as well as the ambivalent feelings and strategic decisions of both the men and wo…
Impacts of Men's Gender-transformative Personal Narratives: A Qualitative Evaluation of the Men's Story Project
Gender-transformative interventions have been found to help ameliorate gender-inequitable norms and improve health outcomes for women and men. While narrative-based strategies are increasingly being used in public health programs, no evaluation publications exist to date for gender-transformative programming that employs men's public narrative-sharing as a central means for promoting healthy masculinities. The Men's Story Project (MSP) creates li…
Why Atlanta: A case study of how place produces intersectional social movement groups
The role of place is undertheorized in the literature on intersectional social movements; this study uses Atlanta, Georgia as an exemplary case study of how the characteristics of geographical areas shape the possibilities for intersectional social movement organizing. Atlanta is home to a rare trend of men’s gender justice groups that organize around one or more additional intersecting identities (e.g. race, sexuality, religion). Across the coun…
We’re Not Equipped”: The Paradox of Intersectional Failures in the Formation of Men’s Gender Justice Groups
Men’s involvement in the antiviolence and women’s rights movements has increased in recent decades, but men’s groups still struggle to recognize difference among men. This study is based on a year-long participant observation and interview study with two gender justice groups directed toward men of marginalized communities. A third group, Men Stopping Violence (MSV), played a paradoxical role that elucidates some dynamics and difficulties of inte…
Engaging Diverse Men: An Intersectional Analysis of Men's Pathways to Antiviolence Activism
Despite the demonstrated utility of intersectionality, research on men allied with women's rights movements has largely focused on white, heterosexual, middle-class, young men. This study illustrates the importance of attending to men's intersecting identities by evaluating the applicability of existing knowledge about men's engagement pathways to the predominantly African American members of a Muslim men's anti-domestic violence group and a gay/…
Some Men: Feminist Allies in the Movement to End Violence against Women
Some Men explores the promise of men's violence prevention work with boys and men in schools, college sports, fraternities, and the U.S. military. It illuminates the strains and tensions of such work--including the reproduction of male privilege in feminist spheres--and explores how men and women navigate these tensions.
Emotions and Redefining Black Masculinity: Movement Narratives of Two Profeminist Organizers
Using an intersectional analysis of Black masculinities, we explored how 2 African American men's personal emotions regarding violence against women and their perceptions of masculinity became politicized by experiences that led to their participation in the founding of 2 separate profeminist men's organizations. Through the public use of their personal narratives, the men used organizational activities to foster new raced-gendered feeling rules …
