dc.description.abstractPerceptions and expectations of masculinity in the United States create difficult conditions for men to discuss the pressures they feel around performing masculinity practices. By remaining relatively silent about these pressures, men secure greater access to material and ideological benefits promised through the patriarchal dividend. The patriarchal dividend, however, does not always pay out and leaves men to grapple with gender difficulties in silence. The purpose of this study was to examine what is produced when individuals, primarily men, come together to dialogue about gender more explicitly through the Creating Allyship Through Gender Education and Dialogue Program, a dialogue program conducted within a prison. Program participants examine socio-cultural influences affecting their understanding of gender at structural and personal levels. The study uses Critical Participatory Action Research and collaborative ethnography as feminist methodologies, engaging incarcerated men in both designing and participating in the research focused on gender. The research results explore how expectations around gender influenced participants’ relationships, identities, and commitments. Further, it examines what is possible through dialogue as a way to develop critical literacies about gender.en_US
