The Causes and Consequences of Hegemonic Masculinity and Dominance in Thailand

Abstract

Women across the globe make up at least half of all populations or 2.5 to 3 billion persons yet they own lessthan10%ofallwealth.This is also the case for Thailand.The arguments in the post feminist movement raised by Giffort, Hawkesworth, Tomalin, Chatterjee, McClintock and others clearly show that many communities of women especially in the Third World such as Thailand continue to depend on hegemonic masculine strategies either directly or indirectly.
