Peter Alilunas is a graduate student at the University of Michigan focusing on the ways gender and sexuality are constructed and circulated across various media. A sample of my work on male masculinity and contemporary film can be found here.

This blog is an effort to explore some of those images and narratives, and particularly those related to male masculinity.  Of primary interest are marketing and advertising campaigns, which are incredible repositories of cultural tension and anxiety about that often get overlooked by scholars and critics.

This site is also a place to document and collect those images, many of which disappear quickly from public circulation.

In case it needs to be said: I am not paid for anything I write on this site and do not accept advertising.
