Book Synopsis Male Impersonators by : Mark Simpson
Book excerpt: Examines the crisis of masculinity as a crisis of looking and looked-at-ness, a punctuation of manly images in film, rock and roll, pornography, advertising, and sports. Explores the search for and the selling of manly seeming, in terms of the masochism of bodybuilding, homoeroticism and narcissism in advertising, war movies, The Crying Game, Tom Cruise, Robert Bly, Clint Eastwood, and other mirrors.
