本文采用社会心理学的方法来探讨年轻失业男子的阻力工作，他们形容为“尴尬”和“女性化”，在关闭的背景下，在南威尔士山谷的一个小镇的钢铁厂。在我们基于社会心理访谈的研究中，我们发现一个社区充满了对男性和女性的复杂情感，这些情感投射到年轻人身上，几乎是他们的替罪羊。这些年轻人的经历充满了尴尬和羞愧。她们因找不到适合性别的工作而受到家人、同龄人和社区其他人的欺凌和羞辱。
This paper uses a psychosocial approach to explore young unemployed men's resistance to work they describe as 'embarrassing' and 'feminine', in the context of the closure of a steelworks in a town in the South Wales valleys. In our psychosocial interview-based study, with young men as well as their mothers and (where possible) their fathers, we found a community riven with complex feelings about masculinity and femininity, projected on to the young men in such a way as to almost scapegoat them. The experience of the young men was marked by embarrassment and shame. They feel bullied and shamed by their families, peers and others in the community for not being able to find gender-appropriate work.
