Synopsis
"An important and interesting volume on gender, focusing on the meaning of manhood in Mexico City. Much more than a discussion of machismo, the text challenges the stereotypes of the Latin male and in their place paints a portrait of rapidly changing gender roles"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

Industry reviews
Gutmann makes a convincing case for according as much importance to differences within gender groups as to those between men and women. . . . Throughout, Gutmann elegantly weaves together theory and ethnographic detail, supplemented by often entertaining personal anecdotes and linguistic observations (he notes that the words 'handcuffs' and 'wives' are synonymous in Spanish). Notably lacking, however, is any organized discussion of the study's methods, which must be inferred from scattered comments. . . . Nonetheless, Gutmann builds a strong argument for viewing gender relations, in Colonia Santo Domingo and beyond, as a series of creative contradictions. Annotation copyright H.W. Wilson Company.
Benson 

[This] is an enticing read that draws the reader into the world of the colonia of Santo Domingo and the everyday lives of its residents. Guttman carefully contextualizes the lives of his participants by describing what it means to live in Santo Domingo, Mexico City, from the varied perspectives of his research participants as well as from the perspective of a white American heterosexual male anthropologist 'living among the natives.' . . . He reveals how Mexican men both contest and assert the meanings of macho and what it means 'to be a man.' Annotation copyright H.W. Wilson Company.
