This text uses interview and observation data to analyze the conditions that encourage some boys and young men to become involved in this widely unconventional activity, and the ways through which they negotiate the gendered and sexual attachments of their professional identity. Most importantly, the book analyzes the opportunities male dancers find to develop a reflexive habitus, engage in gender transgressive acts and experiment with their sexuality. At the same time, it approaches gender and sexuality as embodied, and therefore as parts of identity that are not as easily amendable. This book will be of interest to scholars in Gender and Sexuality Studies as well as Dance and Performance Studies. Andria Christofidou is a sociologist of genders and sexualities. She teaches at the Department of Social and Political Sciences, University of Cyprus, and works as a post-doctoral researcher in the Developing Equality Allies: An Innovative Workplace Inclusion Programme. Andrias research has been published in the Journal of Gender Studies, and NORMA: International Journal for Masculinity Studies. 001439004 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCOhost platform, viewed March 23, 2022). 001439004 650_0 $$aGender identity in dance. 001439004 650_0 $$aMale dancers. 001439004 650_0 $$aSex in dance. 001439004 650_0 $$aMasculinity. 001439004 650_6 $$aIdentité sexuelle dans la danse. 001439004 650_6 $$aDanseurs masculins. 001439004 650_6 $$aSexualité dans la danse. 001439004 650_6 $$aMasculinité. 001439004 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439004 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aChristofidou, Andria.$$tMen, masculinities and sexualities in dance.$$dCham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan, [2021]$$z9783030772178$$w(OCoLC)1259539456 001439004 830_0 $$aGenders and sexualities in the social sciences. 001439004 852__ $$bebk 001439004 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-77218-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439004 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439004$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439004 980__ $$aBIB 001439004 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439004 982__ $$aEbook 001439004 983__ $$aOnline 001439004 994__ $$a92$$bISE
