Descripción

Why is bodybuilding a form of transsexualism? What do football and anal sex have in common? Why is Top Gun such an flamingly 'gay' movie? Why is male vanity such a hot commodity? And why oh why do Marky Mark's pants keep falling down? In this highly influential book Mark Simpson argues for the vital centrality of homoeroticism and narcissism in any understanding of the fraught phenomenon of modern masculinity.Male Impersonators is a penetrating, ticklish but always serious examination of what happens to men when they become 'objectified'. From porn to shaving adverts, rock and roll to war movies, drag to lads' nights out, Male Impersonators reviews the greatest show on Earth - the performance of masculinity.
