K. Allison Hammer is assistant professor and coordinator of women, gender, and sexuality studies at Southern Illinois University. Masculinity in Transition traces the roots of “toxic masculinity,” showing that while toxic strains of masculinity are mainly associated with straight, white men, trans and queer masculinities often reiterate similar patterns of behavior. Arguing that these malignant forms of masculinity can be displaced, K. Allison Hammer’s bold rethinking lays bare the underlying fragility of normative masculinity.Link to more information about the book or to order: <a href='https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/masculinity-in-transition'>https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/masculinity-in-transition</a>   <a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/genderstories">Support the show</a>Instagram: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/genderstories/'>GenderStories</a> Hosted by <a href='https://www.alexiantaffi.com/'>Alex Iantaffi</a> Music by <a href='https://soundcloud.com/maxwell-von-raven'>Maxwell von Raven</a> Gender Stories logo by Lior Effinger-Weintraub
