In my paper I described the bodies of male characters from popular American TV series (Louie, Looking, Broad City) and analyzed the relationship between large body and other people, work culture and society. In what way did feminism change our understanding of what is “female” and what is “male”? The social stereotype still considers that “doing something like a man” means doing it right, while “doing something like a girl” means doing it clumsily, wrongly or sloppily. In my paper I would like to focus primarily on the aspect of male body and what it means to be “looking like a man”. Is there such a thing as feminist political correctness regarding sexuality and the male body?

In four Polish movies – Dogs by Władysław Pasikowski, Private City by Jacek Skalski, Amok by Natalia Koryncka-Gruz and First Million by Waldemar Dziki – male friendship and its crisis was used to describe early phase of Polish capitalism. Each time the solidarity of men was valued positively and was confronted with threats connected with new, capitalist reality. Pasikowski’s movie criticizes new determinants of social prestige, Skalski’s movie expresses the disappointment of new, post-Solidarity political elite, Amok shows how young people lose out in the race for easy money, while First Million treats male community as a great support for getting rich. Free market economy promotes new ideal of citizen – enterpreising individual, who is interested in accumulation of capital and maximization of his profit. This new view of citizen is in conflict with values of Solidarity, which were rather close to ideas of socialism, like being in community. This four films comment on the new reality of Polish economia and ways of impact of free market on lifestyle, state transformation, business and the sphere of axiology.

The author analyses the presence of androgyny and transsexuality mainly in fashion industry which fashion journalists and commentators like to see as a milestone in the fight for equality, stressing the ambivalence of marketing techniques and arguing that – similarly to Erving Goffman’s category of stigma – apart from having subversive potential it can also have an oppresive downside.

Icelandic feature films shot in the Twenty-First century often contain an ironic critique of postmodern models of masculinity. The fictional figures that appear in those movies are often at odds with the traditional perception of national identity and suffer so-called “Peter Pan syndrome”. Moreover, many images created in Iceland after the year 2000 also include a witty reinterpretations of the media’s “generation X” model and suggestive commentaries on life in the liquid modernity. All these features of the male film figures can be seen as the personification of the changes taking place in Icelandic culture and the local community. These issues are associated with the processes of the collision of traditional values, linked with the older generation of Icelanders, with the globalized perception of the younger generations who are open to “pop-cultural outlook” on their country and identity.

This paper examines representations of men in advertisements for ICT products and services appearing the American magazine “Wired” in 1999-2001. The research reveals reinforcement of stereotypical “masculinity” of ICT, which is achieved through associating advertised products and services with the notions appealing to males (power, sex and success). It demonstrates that, despite the gender-neutral character of ICT, the advertising practices serve to reproduce and uphold the hegemonic gender order by constructing the American male consumer as empowered by the use of marketed ICT products and/or services.

The aim of this article is to analyze the main character of the Carlos Reygadas’ movie Battle in Heaven contextualizing it in a critical reflection on the image of masculinity in Latin America. The author is placing Marcos’ character in three contexts. First is the machismo ideology, which the author links with the sociological reflection by Erving Goffman about the meaning of appearance and forms of expression in social life. Second is an intersexual relation of domination-subordination. The author juxtaposes behavior and bodies of Marcos and his lover Ana to show that traditional women and men roles are reversed here. The third context refers to the problem of banalization of life, which the main character suddenly started to feel. In reference to this three phenomena unfolds existential crisis of Reygadas’ character. But it can be read both as an individual perspective of a moment of recognition of one’s condition and also in larger perspective as a metaphor of collapse of the paradigm of masculinity which was in force until recently in Latin American culture. The author recounts opinions of researchers of this area about the crisis of the male identity and shows that Marcos’ existential situation can be interpreted as a metaphor of men’s situation in Latin America. Masculinity and the category of machismo are there in a process of redefinition mainly because of the women’s emancipation and transformations of feminine identity. This situation causes imbalance in social-cultural life and the model of reaction frequently chosen by men is passivity. But then it causes decomposition of social order, because inactivity is traditionally assigned to women. Not able to take action Marcos can be seen as a figure of male identity in contemporary Latin America.

Current scientific publications present different paradigms of masculinity, but research in this area is a relatively new perspective. However, the specific nature of the everyday experience of people with intellectual disability is still neglected and unrecognised. The aim of this article is to show the concept of masculinity from the perspective of men with intellectual disability. The research is placed in the stream of qualitative research using a case study as a method. The subject of the research covers the statements of men with intellectual disability concerning masculinity. The analysis of the research material obtained from 12 interviews allowed for the identification of four types of masculinity.

The classic study of the German social anthropologist is discussed in the context of different trends in “masculinity studies”. The reviewer demonstrates that “male fantasies,” analysed by Theweleit, are not solely a historical phenomenon, but nowadays – in a slightly modified form – can urge young men to (often dangerous) actions. Moreover, Theweleit’s book is also worth reading because throughout almost the whole previous century the Polish variant of masculinity has been referring to the hegemonic German masculinity as its antithesis.

In the article the author presents her interpretation of corporeality in Szczepan Twardoch’s books. She performs her analysis of male body’s image by emphasizing the opposition between biology-based disruptions of social constructs and machine-like process yielding the projection of a perfect soldier. What was indicated by the author is the influence of German authors on Twardoch’s novels, particularly Klaus Theweleit’s works. The analysis focuses on Josef Magnor, the main character of Twardoch’s Drach, serving as a figure of defeat in the context of variegated social relations, most of all relating to masculinity. The key to understand the failure of masculinity in Twardoch’s works seems to be the opposition: the dry – the wet, which facilitates transferring of considerations on war symbols directly into interpretation of Polish recent literature.

Józefa. Artykuł prezentuje ujęcie moralności, które odchodzi od paradygmatu kontroli i dominacji i przyjmuje styl współuczestnictwa i zatroskania.

In her analysis of Kazimierz Brandys’s novels the author focuses on war and wartime as experience and “non-experience” in the perspective of Polish heroic myth and anti-civilian paradigm. In Polish culture romantic and heroic paradigm has substantial influence on the form of masculinity. Experience in this article is a metaphor, which includes participation in a war as a soldier. “Non-experience” in this perspective situates men on the margins of heroic culture. It further shows limitations of heroic culture and revises heroic tradition.

This article focused on the topic of men working in feminized jobs, specifically male teachers in kindergartens. Male teachers in kindergartens are in a specific position due to their low numbers in this environment. This position implies several advantages for them - they are accepted with enthusiasm and with expectation of change. This treatment gives them the opportunity to construct their own and relatively "elite" version of masculinity that is not superior just to the femininity of female teachers but also to the other versions of masculinity. This "elite" version of masculinity is also supported by female teachers and it contributes to maintaining a dichotomous and hierarchical approach to men and women in kindergartens. The purpose of this article is to identify the main strategies that male teachers use in the construction of their version of masculinity in this feminized environment. The article is based on qualitative research, which included the observation in several kindergartens and interviews with male and female teachers in kindergartens.

The analysis of the characteristics that society considers to be characteristic of each gender is one of the oldest perspectives in the study of gender stereotypes. Bearing in mind the changes taking place in the lifestyles of modern women and men as well as the fact that each era creates its own specific image of femininity and masculinity, the respondents (N = 450) were asked about what they consider to be the characteristic features of modern women and men. In addition, they were asked to identify the characteristics that best describe them. Analysis of the responses showed that the respondents attributed to modern women characteristics indicating the stereotype of a career-focused woman, while in the case of the male respondents, the indicated attributes of a modern woman, were a combination of the stereotype of a female sex object and a businesswoman. In the opinions of both groups of respondents, the masculinity is based on the characteristics traditionally attributed to men, gently expanded characteristics of the stereotype of a man, i.e. a life partner who is involved in family life. The question about self-perception in terms of femininity and masculinity showed that the vast majority of women surveyed described themselves using traits considered as typically masculine or combining masculine and feminine traits. In contrast, when describing themselves, men chose traits characteristic of traditional masculinity, while traits associated with femininity (e.g., caring) were only supplementary.

Radykalne ruchy polskiej prawicy mają zasadniczo męski charakter i grupują wielu młodych mężczyzn. Przestrzeganie podziału ról płciowych, egzaltacja męską siłą, homospołeczność, braterstwo, fizyczna sprawność podporządkowanie kobiet jako rodzicielek i gospodyń domowych to powszechne wśród "wściekłych młodych mężczyzn" nastawienie tak globalne, jak i specyficznie polskiej. Ta uogólniona charakterystyka ma swoje lokalne warianty, trajektorie i osobliwości. Artykuł stanowi próbę wyjaśnienia fenomenu popularności polskich ruchów prawicowych w lokalnym kontekściez uwzględnieniem czynników społecznych, kulturowych i ekonomicznych. Szczególną uwagę poświęcono Marszowi Niepodległości - cyklicznemu świętu radykałów i dyskursowi męskości, jaki przy okazji tej celebracji jest upowszechniany. W pierwszej części przedstawiam społeczne i ekonomiczne tło procesu radykalizacji, odtwarzam poglądy i maskulinistyczną ideologię polskich "wściekłych mężczyzn". W drugiej części uwaga kieruje się ku kulturowemu i historycznemu kodowaniu "zawiedzionego poczucia uprzywilejowania" (Kimmel, 2013). Część trzecia sięga do koncepcji "męskości spektakularnej" (Garlick, 2016, 163 - 193) i analizuje sposób, w jaki nowoczesna technologia wpływa na konstruowanie męskości przez uczestników Marszów Niepodległości.

Radical movements of the Polish far-right consist, as elsewhere, mainly of young men. The strict gender binarism, the exaltation of men’s power, homosociality, brotherhood, physical strength and subordination of women are omnipresent among 'angry white men' everywhere, Poland included. However, these general characteristics have always its local variants, trajectories, and particularities. This article is an attempt to explain the phenomenon of Polish radical right movements in its local context: cultural, social, economic. The article focuses on ‘The March of Independence’ – a cyclical celebration for radical groups, which proliferates the discourses of far-right radical masculinity. In the first part, the author focuses on the social and economic background, worldview and ‘masculinist’ ideology of Polish' angry white men’ (Kimmel 2013). The second part focuses on the historical and cultural coding of their 'aggrieved entitlement' (Kimmel 2013). The third part of the essay draws on Steve's Garlick (Garlick 2016: 163−193) concept of ‘spectacular masculinity’. It analyzes how modern technology contributes to the construction of ‘spectacular’ masculinity among the participants of the march/members of radical groups.

In the article, the author presents an interpretation of the novel Szpital Czerwonego Krzyża by Michał Choromański. One of the key interpretative hypothesis advanced by the author of the article based on a reading of the novel is the assumption that the work constitutes an important statement on masculinity and disability, exposing the artificiality and unoriginality of masculine gender roles and criticizing somatic culture. This criticism is, in turn, significant with regard to twentieth-century reflections on body issues in post-war modernity. The author of the article indicates that Choromański’s work, written before the Second World War but published not until 1956, is a piece of significancefor the reconstruction of issues of disability in terms of Polish literary history.

The author of the article analyses the transformations of the category of masculinity in social realist literature. For Stalinism a negative point of reference in the fight over a new model of masculinity was war and an image of young, brave soldiers of the Home Army, associated with the tradition of the Second Polish Republic. The attempts were made to juxtapose this model with a new type of masculinity founded on the idea of physical work on the reconstruction of the country, an image of a heroic soldier of the Red Army and the Secret Police functionaries. In the 1960s and 1970s the authors of militia fiction and the works belonging to the so‑called military patriotism referred to this Stalinist concept of masculinity.
