Abstract

This article focuses on the concept of masculinity as violence and how hegemonic masculinity ultimately serves as a secondary form of violence among men who survived sexual violence in college. I used Jackson and Mazzei's concept of "thinking with theory" framing both hegemonic masculinity and administrative violence as theoretical frameworks to understand how masculinity as violence mediates these college men's lived experiences. This study was a secondary analysis of interview data from 15 cisgender and transgender men who survived sexual violence during college between 2005 and 2015, using a qualitative collective case study approach.

FINDINGS included: (1) the inevitability of masculinity as violence; (2) masculinity as violence and its impact on coping; (3) the shame, fear, and frustration of masculinity as violence; and (4) systemic administrative (masculine) violence in higher education.
