| Description: | The Living With Pride series of the Gender and Sexuality Center presents Christopher Hines' 2009 film "The Butch Factor: What Kind of Man Are You?" The film broaches the topic of masculinity and gay men. A discussion will follow.
From the Castro culture of the 1970s to today's Bears and gym rats, Hines' film is a fascinating investigation of gay men and sexuality that blows the lid off old stereotypes and showcases a battalion of interviewees, including muscle men, rodeo riders, rugby players and cops. The men speak candidly on topics from homophobia to metrosexuality to embracing effeminacy as they reveal what it means to be a gay man in America today.
The Gender and Sexuality Center, a unit of the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement, provides safe spaces for all members of the university community to explore, organize and promote learning around issues of gender and sexuality. The center also facilitates a greater responsiveness to the needs of women and the LGBTQ communities through education, outreach and advocacy. |
