Exploring how men in service and caring occupations (cabin crew, primary school teachers, nurses and librarians) both do and undo gender as they manage the potential mismatch between gender and occupational identity, this book engages with the key theoretical concepts of identity, visibility and emotions to examine mens experiences.
