Abstract [en]

This paper is based on a study that explores young men's perceptions and experiences of the MeToo movement and sexual consent, with a focus on gender and sexuality norms and individual experiences of sexual interaction. This paper discusses men's perceptions and experiences of consent in relation to masculinities. The results show that the men in the study aspire to be gender-equal and feminist, which they try to navigate in relation to traditional masculinity norms that demand men to be active and dominant in sexual situations. This leads to a discrepancy between their ideal self and actual self, creating insecurity in sexual situations and intimate relations. The men's navigation between their ideal of being feminist and gender-equal, and the social expectations based on traditional masculinity norms, can also create conflicts and social insecurity in homosocial contexts.
