Sociologist Michael Kimmel tackles the world of late adolescent boys and young men: the "guys" of America, aged 16 to 26. Although these young men may appear to be growing up too fast, they are in fact becoming adults quite slowly. From the mundane—video games, movies and television, sports, and music—to the extreme—violent fraternity initiations, sexual predation, and school shootings—Kimmel reveals the culture that every boy must navigate on his way to adulthood, whether he is a participant or a bystander.

Kimmel asserts that what happens to boys in this period often determines the type of men they will be for the rest of their lives.
