I’ve been teaching gender studies courses for nearly two decades, and I developed the first “Men and Masculinity” class ever taught at my college. Through my teaching and other work, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about sexual harassment and other forms of public and private violence against women. And the longer I do this work, the more I’m convinced that one of the roots of the problem – particularly in North America – is “homosociality.
