    • Contradictions and tensions of the practice of masculinities in school: interrogating embodiment and 'good buddy talk' 

      Kehler, Michael; Davison, Kevin; Frank, Blye (Journal of Curriculum Theorizing, 2005)
      Masculinity, and gender more broadly, has been theorised as a series of performative and discursive acts (Butler, 1990) which are constituted contextually and culturally. Not only are masculinities enacted differently ...
