Beskrivning
What does it mean to be a man in our biomedical day and age? Through ethnographic explorations of the everyday lives of Danish sperm donors, Being a Sperm Donor explores how masculinity and sexuality are reconfigured in a time in which the norms and logics of (reproductive) biomedicine have become ordinary. It investigates men's moral reasoning regarding donation, their handling of transgressive experiences at the sperm bank, and their related negotiations of gender, sexuality, and intimacy, showing how socio-cultural and political dimensions become intertwined with men's intimate sense of self.

Recensioner i media

"Mohr is to be commended on having carried out an ethnographic study that is thorough and sensitive. Not only that, the work shows considerable theoretical ambition in its analysis of biomedical subjectivation at the intersection of gender, sexuality, and assisted reproductive technologies... informed by a comprehensive grasp of kinship, feminist and queer theories." - Bob Simpson, University of Durham
