The current author hypothesizes that 'macho' notion of masculinity is eroding while metrosexual masculinity pattern is becoming prevalent in the chosen set of men's lifestyle magazines in Ukraine. The current analysis sub-stantiates the fact of women being the audience of men's lifestyle magazines, which, as the author argues, influences the set of commodities advertised and the compositions of the advertisements, including the way men are visually represented. The research de-monstrates that it is through certain commodities that particular notion of masculinity is constructed. Heterosexuality becomes contestable through the advertisements of perfumes, which are presumed to be consumed by metrosexual men exclusively, while the advertisements of vodka, cars and watches are aimed at 'macho men'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Iryna Bagramyan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 363910028X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639100280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Iryna Bagramyan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446278828287,"sku":"9783639100280","price":52.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_69e0d62b-8939-47be-9902-08a387e9aaba.jpg?v=1777223684","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/changing-masculinities-iryna-bagramyan-9783639100280","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
