Using gender as a concept and category to unravel the relations between sexual difference and inequality, the authors present the results of their descriptive and transversal research, designed to address multiple cases, from a qualitative methodological perspective (QMP method) and compare them with other findings, especially from Latin America. The research techniques applied, expose how the patriarchal culture continues imposing a burden on the minds of many Cuban men, while they also exhibit the rise of a new generation which enjoys a less genitalist sexuality, willing to sharing their new outlook and beginning to manifest a liberating and positive distance from machismo.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Masculinities & Social Change}, author={Formental Hernández, Soura and Hernández Pita, Iyamira and Fernández de Juan, Teresa}, year={2014}, month={Oct.}, pages={220–247} }
