The Origins of Macho - Men and Masculinity in Colonial Mexico

Basing the study of colonial Mexican masculinity on the experiences of mainstream men, Lipsett-Rivera traces the genesis of the Mexican macho by looking at daily interactions between Mexican men in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In doing so she establishes an important foundation for gender studies in Mexico and Latin America.
