Definición

  • Fatherhood has been an all but universal experience for American men and is fundamental to understanding American masculinity. Through their experiences and conceptualizations of fatherhood, men have made sense of their lives, obligations, and responsibilities—as well as of notions attached to masculine identity, such as maturity, respectability, commitment, and breadwinning.
