While gender studies, women and feminist studies have been at least partly institutionalized and can look back onto their own history – or histories – as (sometimes contested) academic disciplines, masculinity as a subject has only much later begun to receive attention in academia. If, in the beginning, masculinity was hardly more than an occasional topic in disciplines such as sociology, psychology, history, and literary studies, it has become a field of study in its own right, at least in the United States and the United Kingdom. Since the late 1980 s, masculinity has occasionally begun to be addressed in German academic discourse as well, but initially remained restricted to areas such as the military, violence, sexual orientation, body images, and sports.
