This qualitative study explores how men use health to negotiate privilege across social identities. In-depth interviews were employed to examine how men conceptualized masculinity and class identity within the context of their rural community, as well as the impact of this conceptualization on men’s perceptions of health and healthcare-seeking behavior. In unpacking the local understanding of masculinity and class identity it was found that respondents utilized “defense othering” to position their lifestyle choices in relation to others within the community. The categories of “reliefer” and “non-reliefer” were employed by respondents to discuss both masculinity and class identity. Men used these categories as a reference to delineate a hegemonic masculinity within the community, and to explain their health beliefs and practices.

这项定性研究探讨了男性如何利用健康来协商跨社会身份的特权。通过深入访谈，研究了男性在农村社区背景下如何将男子气概和阶级身份概念化，以及这种概念化对男性对健康和寻求医疗保健行为的看法的影响。在解开当地对男子气概和阶级认同的理解时，发现受访者利用“捍卫他人”来定位他们与社区内其他人的生活方式选择。被调查者使用“救济者”和“非救济者”这两个类别来讨论男性气质和阶级认同。男性用这些分类作为参考，在社区中描绘出一种霸道的男子气概，并解释他们的健康信仰和做法。

Some have suggested that Major Depressive Disorder diagnostic criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fifth Edition (DSM-5) may not capture the full range of depressive symptoms of some men who adhere to hegemonic masculine gender role norms. The purpose of this study was to examine the ability of several proposed externalizing variables to predict masculine depression in a sample of men (n = 169). A stepwise multiple regression process was used, in which three models were analyzed. The analysis indicated that hostility and anger were the only variables predictive of masculine depressive symptoms. Additional implications for clinical assessment, limitations of the study, and suggestions for future research are addressed.

一些人认为，《精神疾病诊断与统计手册-第五版》(DSM-5)中的重度抑郁症诊断标准可能无法捕捉到一些坚持男性主导性别角色规范的男性的全部抑郁症状。本研究的目的是检验几个外化变量在男性样本中预测男性抑郁的能力(n = 169)。采用逐步多元回归方法，对三个模型进行了分析。分析表明，敌意和愤怒是预测男性抑郁症状的唯一变量。对临床评估的其他意义、研究的局限性和对未来研究的建议进行了讨论。

Boys' Healthy Packaged Food Choices 男孩的健康包装食品选择

International journal of men's health

Pub Date : 2015-04-01 DOI: 10.3149/JMH.1401.21

Aligned with efforts by the World Health Organization to address children’s consumption habits and to prevent noncommunicable diseases, this study explores the influence of gender on children’s packaged food choices with a focus on the perspectives of boys. Twenty-seven boys and thirty-one girls (grades 1-6) participated in small focus groups. Boys were more likely to say nutrient data informed their healthy choices compared to girls. Boys also equated “meatiness” with health, in contrast to girls’ choice of vegetables. Both genders were positively persuaded by the term “organic.” Previous research documenting boys’ “less healthy” food choices may not be due to their lack of knowledge but due to gendered interpretations of healthy packaged food options.

与世界卫生组织为解决儿童消费习惯和预防非传染性疾病所做的努力相一致，本研究探讨了性别对儿童包装食品选择的影响，重点关注男孩的观点。27名男生和31名女生(1-6年级)参加了小型焦点小组。与女孩相比，男孩更有可能说营养数据会影响他们的健康选择。男孩也将“多肉”与健康等同起来，而女孩则选择蔬菜。男性和女性都被“有机”这个词说服了。先前的研究记录了男孩“不太健康”的食品选择，这可能不是由于他们缺乏知识，而是由于对健康包装食品选择的性别解读。

Excess male mortality across the lifespan is partly attributed to masculine norms. Largely unexplored are ways masculine norms are positively aligned with healthy practices like diet, exercise, and doctor’s visits. Hence, we explored how men described their masculine norms in the context of their physical health practices. Data from 4 focus groups and 16 interviews was analyzed for how masculine norms shape healthy intentions and behaviors. Contrary to models of masculinity as just a barrier, considerable health motivation is related to masculine roles of providers, workers, and protectors of family. In particular, work and family were central motivators of healthy behaviors. Better recognition of the role of family and work could help inform policy aiming to support healthier men.

在整个生命周期中，男性死亡率过高的部分原因是男性化的规范。很大程度上未被探索的是男性规范与健康实践(如饮食、锻炼和医生就诊)的积极联系。因此，我们探讨了男性如何在他们的身体健康实践的背景下描述他们的男性规范。来自4个焦点小组和16个访谈的数据分析了男性规范如何塑造健康的意图和行为。与男子气概只是一种障碍的模式相反，相当大的健康动机与提供者、工人和家庭保护者的男性角色有关。特别是，工作和家庭是健康行为的主要动力。更好地认识到家庭和工作的作用有助于为旨在支持更健康男性的政策提供信息。

Masculinity and Embodiment in the Practice of Foreskin Restoration 包皮修复术中的阳刚之气与化身

International journal of men's health

Amanda Kennedy

Male circumcision is one of the most widely practiced surgical procedures in the U.S. Thus, it may come as a surprise for some to learn that there is a movement of (mostly) men fighting against the surgery, and a portion of these activists advocate methods of foreskin restoration. For men dissatisfied with their circumcised state, foreskin restoration, especially of the do-it-yourself, nonsurgical variety, offers an opportunity to reconstruct the altered body. The aim of this paper is to explore the body politics and aesthetics of men who pursue foreskin restoration, the organizations that support them, and the tools they use. Ultimately, I hope to lay bare what restoration really is and does for the men who practice it.

男性包皮环切术是美国最广泛实施的外科手术之一，因此，有些人可能会惊讶地发现，有一场(主要是)男性反对手术的运动，其中一部分激进分子提倡包皮修复的方法。对于那些对包皮环切术不满意的男性来说，包皮修复术，尤其是那些自己动手的、非手术的包皮修复术，提供了一个重建已经改变的身体的机会。本文的目的是探讨追求包皮修复的男性的身体政治和美学，支持他们的组织，以及他们使用的工具。最终，我希望揭示修复的真正含义，以及为修行者带来的益处。

Why Do Young Men Take Nutritional Supplements? an Analysis of the Advice Provided in Men's Health Magazine 年轻人为什么要服用营养补充剂?《男性健康》杂志建议分析

International journal of men's health

Pub Date : 2015-04-01 DOI: 10.3149/JMH.1401.71

S. Outram

The market for supplements has increased substantially within Western nations over the past two to three decades. The following article examines why young men, despite being largely free from ill-health, might take nutritional supplements. It is argued that the advice provided in the popular journal Men’s Health magazine does not unduly bias the evidence base for using nutritional supplements or take a particular stance. Instead, the choice to use supplements may be seen as part of a wider culture concerned with the role of scientific evidence in making health choices, body imagery and body dissatisfaction among men, and the merging of health risk preoccupation with the growing desire to “maximise” health and wellbeing.

在过去的二三十年里，补品市场在西方国家大幅增长。下面这篇文章探讨了为什么年轻男性，尽管基本上没有健康问题，可能会服用营养补充剂。有人认为，流行杂志《男性健康》(Men’s Health)提供的建议并没有不恰当地偏袒使用营养补充剂的证据基础，也没有采取特定的立场。相反，使用补充剂的选择可能被视为一种更广泛的文化的一部分，这种文化关注的是科学证据在做出健康选择、身体意象和男性对身体的不满方面的作用，以及对健康风险的关注与对健康和福祉“最大化”的日益增长的渴望的结合。

This study used multiple methods for assessing African-American (AA) men's and their female relatives, friends, and significant others' knowledge and cancer-related decision-making practices within the context of a prostate cancer (PrCA) education program. Data were collected from 81 participants using qualitative focus groups and 49 participants also completed quantitative pre/post surveys. Findings showed that men often relied on their female "significant other" and doctors for guidance on cancer-related decisions. Women described their role in assisting with their male partners' cancer decisions. AA men's and women's knowledge scores increased between pre- and post-tests which can indicate a greater likelihood of future participation in informed cancer-related decision making. Also, using multiple methods in formative research can provide relevant information for developing effective cancer-related interventions.

本研究在前列腺癌(PrCA)教育项目的背景下，使用多种方法评估非裔美国人(AA)男性及其女性亲属、朋友和重要他人的知识和癌症相关决策实践。通过定性焦点小组收集了81名参与者的数据，49名参与者还完成了定量前/后调查。研究结果显示，男性在做与癌症相关的决定时，往往依赖于他们的女性“重要伴侣”和医生的指导。女性描述了她们在帮助男性伴侣做出癌症决定方面的角色。AA测试前后，男性和女性的知识得分都有所提高，这表明未来更有可能参与与癌症相关的知情决策。此外，在形成性研究中使用多种方法可以为制定有效的癌症相关干预措施提供相关信息。

Media presentations of health issues affect evaluations of personal susceptibility to particular illnesses and hence help-seeking behaviours. We examined data on prevalence of eating disorders (EDs - which are often characterised as 'female') among males in: scientific literature; readily-accessible web-based information; and UK newspaper articles (published 7/12/2002-7/12/2012). This revealed conflicting statistics. Academic papers suggest men comprise around 25% of community-based samples, but much lower proportions (10% or less) of clinic samples. Websites and newspapers present widely differing statistics both on prevalence overall (numbers with EDs in the UK ranged from 60,000 to 2.7 million), and in men (generally suggesting they constituted 10-25% of those with EDs), rarely distinguishing between diagnosed and non-diagnosed samples. By 2011, newspapers were more consistent on overall numbers with EDs in the UK (1.6 million) and the proportion who were men (20%), drawing on one website as the authoritative source. Conflicting statistics may confuse men searching for ED (or other) health-related information, lead to underestimations of male susceptibility to EDs and/or reinforce inappropriate stereotypes of EDs as confined to adolescent girls.

媒体对健康问题的报道影响到对个人对特定疾病易感性的评估，从而影响到寻求帮助的行为。我们检查了男性中饮食失调(EDs -通常被描述为“女性”)患病率的数据:科学文献;方便取用的网上资讯;英国报纸文章(2002年7月12日- 2012年7月12日)。这揭示了相互矛盾的统计数据。学术论文表明，男性在社区样本中约占25%，但在诊所样本中所占比例要低得多(10%或更少)。网站和报纸在总体患病率(英国ed患者人数从6万到270万不等)和男性患病率(通常表明ed患者占ed患者的10-25%)方面的统计数据差异很大，很少区分诊断和未诊断的样本。到2011年，英国各大报纸在电子编辑的总体数量(160万)和男性比例(20%)上更加一致，并将一个网站作为权威来源。相互矛盾的统计数据可能会使男性在寻找ED(或其他)健康相关信息时感到困惑，导致男性对ED的易感性被低估，和/或强化ED仅限于青春期女孩的不恰当刻板印象。

Advancing Research on Men and Reproduction 推进男性与生殖研究

International journal of men's health

Pub Date : 2014-07-07 DOI: 10.3149/JMH.1403.214

While feminist scholarship has centred reproduction in women’s lives, it has inadequately explored its meanings in men’s. If we assume that reproduction happens in relationships of one kind or another between males and females, then missing men is a considerable oversight. Although there is now much research on fatherhood, merely focussing on this end-stage assumes that women take care of all of the foreplay, leaving unanswered questions in relation, inter alia, to men’s desires for parenthood, men’s involvement in planning or lack of planning to have children, the way men struggle or cope with infertility, their encounters with new reproductive technologies and surrogate mothers, their experiences of foetal screening, their involvement in abortion decision-making, and their experiences of becoming or not becoming a father. In this article I argue that men have compelling experiences throughout the reproductive trajectory deserving of more attention. I offer a profeminist theoretical composition for advancing further enquiries on men and reproduction, which begins with the feminism-informed Critical Studies of Men and Masculinities (CSM), and then weaves this together with the theories of intimate citizenship, sociology of the body, and the sociology of science and technology. I will propose how concepts from these collective theories may be useful in opening up layered questions about gender relations, intimacy, bodies, and technologies in future studies of men and reproduction.

虽然女权主义学者把生殖作为女性生活的中心，但对其在男性生活中的意义却没有充分的探讨。如果我们假设生殖发生在男女之间的一种或另一种关系中，那么缺少男性是一个相当大的疏忽。虽然现在有很多关于父亲的研究，但仅仅集中在这个最后阶段的假设是，妇女照顾所有的前戏，留下未解的问题，特别是与男人对为人父母的渴望，男人参与计划或不计划生育，男人如何挣扎或应付不孕症，他们与新的生殖技术和代孕母亲的接触，他们对胎儿筛查的经历，他们对堕胎决策的参与，以及他们成为或不成为父亲的经历。在这篇文章中，我认为男性在整个生殖轨迹中都有值得更多关注的引人注目的经历。我提供了一个女性主义的理论组成，以推进对男性和生殖的进一步研究，它从女性主义的男性和男性气质的批判研究(CSM)开始，然后将其与亲密公民理论、身体社会学和科学技术社会学编织在一起。我将提出这些集体理论的概念如何在未来关于男性和生殖的研究中，在打开关于性别关系、亲密关系、身体和技术的分层问题方面发挥作用。
