Abstract

If people want to be mindful of gender differences when addressing and working with boys, it seems that they need to accept that these boys must not be confronted with excessive questioning of the traditional image of men as communicated through the media. This applies both to reading promotion, which calls for finally offering them ‘real heroes’ again, and to free youth work, which wants to attract them with ‘tough’ offers for identification. The reference book at hand illustrates this dilemma using examples from projects in media-oriented work with boys.
