University of Winnipeg introduces men's studies
 
WINNIPEG — The University of Winnipeg is introducing a course in men's studies — an examination of masculinity, boys, men and popular culture.

U of W says men's studies emerged as early as the 1970s, filling a gap left by women's studies that had not dealt with what academics call the gendered construction of masculinity, and masculinity's complex relation to power.

"When Women's Studies became Women's and Gender Studies several years ago, we incorporated perspectives from men's studies into our courses, but this is the first time we have devoted a course specifically to the area," said Prof. Pauline Greenhill, who's teaching the course next winter.

The course examines myths, theories, and images of boys and men that shape how they are represented and how they represent themselves in popular culture, particularly in feature films.

The course will focus on North American masculinities, examining gender, race, class, age, sexuality, nationality, ethnicity, ability and other categories of identity, said Greenhill.

Lecturers will look at westerns, comedies, action, science fiction and other genres. Topics addressed will include work, relationships, boyhood and violence.

I'm gonna go with my gut feeling and say women.
But if the course was available to me I'd probably take it.

I hope they teach you how to beat a woman without leaving bruises or noticeable marks.
