Fourteenth Annual Graduate Humanities Conference

Abstract deadline: 2/16/07

This is a call for papers that address the topic of gay masculinity.
Can there be such a thing, or rather, are there many types of
masculinities or is there only one masculinity?  Must a gay masculinity
(which is usually labeled as inadequate or excessive) always be defined
against the heteronormative definition of what is masculine ?  Academic
pieces that consider these topics, and others of the same theme, are
welcome.
