TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Caring about male caregiving: spaces, subjectivities and regendering care JO - Dialogues in human geography A1 - Gorman-Murray, Andrew SP - 74 EP - 78 VL - 7 IS - 1 N2 - This commentary responds to Boyer, Dermott, James and MacLeavy's examination of the post-recession regendering of care in the UK. My response is informed by my geographical position in Australia. I first discuss what I see as the key contributions of the paper: the socio-spatial dynamics of male care giving, and the significance of economic structures, employment conditions and workplace gender norms for the potential regendering of care. I then offer two sets of suggestions for further thinking and research on the geography of male care giving: nuanced attention to the diverse spaces and subjectivities of male care giving.
