传统上,墨西哥男子在父亲奖学金、性和生殖健康相关研究以及移民研究中被歪曲或忽略。基于对居住在洛杉矶的20名移民男子的深入录音采访,本研究考察了墨西哥父亲在美国教育女儿时对童贞的看法。研究结果表明,父亲的女儿的童贞的看法是由父权制和男性气质的区域表达,以及城市内的barrios的社会经济隔离。在一个性危险的社会中保护他们的女儿,改善她们的社会经济未来,对这些男人来说,比保护童贞本身更重要。这些男人的叙述挑战了拉丁美洲男子气概父亲的刻板形象和原型。
Mexican men have been traditionally misrepresented in or omitted from fatherhood scholarship, sexuality and reproductive health-related research, and immigration studies. Based on in-depth tape-recorded interviews with 20 immigrant men living in Los Angeles, this study examined Mexican fathers' views of virginity as they educate their daughters in the United States. Results indicate that fathers' perceptions of a daughter's virginity are shaped by regional expressions of patriarchy and masculinity, and the socioeconomic segregation of inner-city barrios. Protecting their daughters front a sexually dangerous society and improving their socioeconomic future is of greater concern to these men than preserving virginity per se. These men's narratives challenge stereotypical images and archetypes of the Latino macho father.
