He examines gender norms and the misogynistic limitations of male interaction. The author concerns himself with avoiding the propagation of negative stereotypes, and shares examples of personal missteps. By exploring his childhood and examining relationships between brothers, fathers, and sons, the author attempts to create a new model of manhood to serve as an example for his own child. Other essays focus on the author’s experience driving for a rideshare company, the threat of a disinformed public, his attachment to a childhood toy, and the limitations imposed on him by a chronic illness. 2021-04-21 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1618959584668506 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1618959584668506 restricted--full text unavailable until 2024-03-26 This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
