Resumen
KRIMBERG VON MUHLEN, Bruna; SALDANHA, Marilia y NEVES STREY, Marlene. Mothering fathers: changes in sight?. liber. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.1, pp.9-19. ISSN 1729-4827.
Today men interact more with their children and with their home environments compared with past decades. Men are redefining their identity and their roles, questioning societal constraints. Based on some studies of anthropology, sociology and psychology carried out in recent decades especially in Latin America, the relationship between father and son is focused in this article. In order to reflect on the possible effects of mothering fathers into the next generation this study tries to highlight the importance of parent-child relationship in the construction of male gender identity and to discuss asymmetries in the sharing of parental care, to identify the elements that contribute for different assumptions on fatherhood, and assessing the gender gap between men and women concerning child care.
