From the Back Cover:
"In this brave and provocative book, Peter F. Murphy looks inside the metaphors of masculinity to reveal that sexual slang is more about fear than power, more about distrust than control, more about softness than hardness. Our language, our bodies, our selves--a paper-thin veneer that masquerades as cold, hard steel."--Michael Kimmel, author of Manhood in America
About the Author:
"Murphy reveals much about the heterosexual/masculine assumptions that all of us contend with on a daily basis. This book has the potential to make us, both men and women, rethink our beliefs and change the way we configure our language and relationships."--James D. Armstrong, editor of Distant Mirrors: America as a Foreign Culture
Peter F. Murphy is the chair of the Department of English and Philosophy at Murray State University and editor of Fictions of Masculinity: Crossing Cultures, Crossing Sexualities.
