I recently discovered his work while doing some research for a class on language and gender, and I thought all of his articles I read were pretty compelling. Here's one on the issue of homosociality in the setting of a college fraternity. He's also got a lot available on worldcat/jstor, but if you guys don't have access to those, I'd be happy to send you copies, and I've got some scanned PDFs of some book chapters of his too.

As a mostly SAWCSM in a college fraternity, I thought a lot of what he had to say was pretty interesting and (even 20 years later) still extremely relevant.

But putting that aside, what does /r/SRSMen think of this sort of research? Do you think it's valuable? Problematic? I'm sort of familiar with gender studies, though it's mostly been filtered through a few bros' girlfriends, and I've only recently started to engage with much academic literature, so I'm worried that I'm missing some sort of enormous flaw in this guy's work.
