Feminist Boys Studies Research Group

The Feminist Boys Studies Research Group works to explore and develop a distinctive approach to research on boys, boyhood, and the conjunction of youth and masculinity. Our affirmative approach is committed to moving beyond seeing boys and boyhood as obstacles to a more gender equal future and to critically inquire into the experiences and representations of boys, without homogenising them but also without reducing them to a problem space.
