Germaine Greer's controversial 2003 book examines the representation of male youthfulness and by centring the female gaze sought "to advance women's reclamation of their capacity for and right to visual pleasure." Containing some 200 photographs and pictures of boys from classical mythology to Kurt Cobain, Greer views the aesthetics of youthful masculinity through a radically feminist lens.
