男性角色表现的充分性主导了关于黑人男子气概和男子气概的研究（Franklin，1984；Frazier，1939；Hare，1971；Liebow，1967；Moynihan，1965；Pleck，1981；Staples，1982）。具体来说，男性作为经济提供者或家长的角色一直是这项工作的核心。黑人男性与男子气概的斗争，无论是结构性障碍、文化病态还是两者兼而有之的副产品，都与黑人社区中女户主家庭、未婚生育和离婚率的一个因素有关（Liebow，1967；Staples，1982；Wilson，1987）。然而，男子气概的含义在很大程度上被视为单一维度和普遍性的——男人作为经济提供者和一家之主。此外，黑人男性是什么以及他们应该是什么是根据白人男性的地位和特权来衡量的。结果是，我们对黑人如何在传统的男性气质和男子气概概念之内或之外定义自己知之甚少。
The adequacy of male role performance has dominated research on masculinity and manhood among Black men (Franklin, 1984; Frazier, 1939; Hare, 1971; Liebow, 1967; Moynihan, 1965; Pleck, 1981; Staples, 1982). Specifically, men’s roles as economic provid-ers or as patriarchs have been central to this work. Black males’ struggles with manhood, whether a byproduct of structural barriers, cultural pathology, or both, are implicated as a contributor to the rates of female-headed households, never-married childbearing, and divorce in Black communities (Liebow, 1967; Staples, 1982; Wilson, 1987). However, the meaning of manhood has been treated as largely unidimensional and universal-man as economic provider and as head of the family. Further, what Black men are and what they should be is measured against the status and privilege of White males. The result is that we know little about how Black men define themselves either within or beyond conventional notions of mas-culinity and manhood.
