The research project is theoretically and conceptually situated within the sociocultural approach in both psychological and sociological fields with a gender perspective. It addresses the study of masculinities, focusing on gender stereotypes through which men have learned how to be men, the difficulties and discomforts they face that are often silenced for not conforming to the hegemonic model of masculinity, and the concept of being a man.
Furthermore, it incorporates research on fatherhood or multiple forms of fatherhood, recognizing that there is more than one way to be a father. The presence of men in the exercise of fatherhood and the implications of their absence within the family structure are important aspects to explore, considering their impact on the development of children, themselves, and their partners.
We are interested in documenting the changes or continuities in masculinities and fatherhood based on gender stereotypes and sociocultural requirements. We aim to explore the possibility of men being involved and engaged in family settings, building relationships based on gender equality and equity.
The methodological approach employs qualitative research, utilizing strategies such as in-depth interviews, semi-structured interviews, life stories, and participant observation to capture experiences and meanings within life trajectories.
