Sexuality, Masculinities and Resistance in South India unravels the relations of domination, subordination, and resistance in the context of sexuality and masculinities in contemporary Malabar, South India.

Exploring a taxonomy of masculinities, based on the lived experiences of gender and sexual non-conforming men, this book documents the hierarchical character of masculine articulations on the one hand, and forms of everyday resistance to hegemonic masculinity, on the other. It proposes a broad project of social transformation, inclusive of struggles by feminist groups, which should also engage with socially ‘non-conforming’ collectives to challenge the power of masculinities.

Sexuality, Masculinities and Resistance in South India will be a valuable text for students and researchers in gender, sexuality, and queer studies, as well as for professionals and activists in these areas.
