This work provides a critical introduction to leisure theory from a feminist perspective, offering insights into how leisure theory has handled the question of gender difference and inequality, and analyzing the leisure experiences that women encounter and construct in their everyday lives.
Wide-ranging and challenging, this book offers a host of new insights into how leisure theory has handled the question of gender difference and inequality.

Providing a critical introduction to the leading positions in leisure theory, Betsy Wearing guides the reader through their strengths and weaknesses from a feminist perspective. This book draws attention to the various leisure experiences that women encounter and construct in their everyday lives and the meanings that these experiences have for them. Her perspective takes into account such poststructuralist ideas as multiple subjectivities of women and multiple femininities; the possibilities of resistance to male dominance in leisure; the potential through leisure of rewriting masculine and feminine scripts; and leisure as a site of struggle to challenge hegemonic masculinity.
