This book considers the array of daily relationships involved in producing masculinity and how those actions and relationships translate to video games. Moreover, it examines the ways the actual play of the games maps onto the stories to create contradictory moments that show that, while toxic masculinity certainly exists, it is far from inevitable. Topics covered include the nature of masculine apprenticeship and nurturing, labor, fatherhood, the scapegoating of women, and reckoning with mortality, among many others"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Masculinity in video games. 650 7 $a GAMES & ACTIVITIES / Video & Mobile. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Gender Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Masculinity in video games. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02029198 830 0 $a Studies in gaming. 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20221012010617.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2FD6206249F311ED9CAF447533ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
