“…These findings make sense in light of prior research indicating that both dominant constructions of masculinity (e.g., Antifemininity, Toughness, Status) and culturally specific constructions of masculinity (e.g., machismo , caballerismo , cool pose, John Henryism) may differentially affect health outcomes (Arciniega et al, 2008; James, 1994; Merritt et al, 2004; Ojeda & Piña-Watson, 2014). As suggested by prior literature and the present findings, some facets of masculinity have positive influences on critical health-related outcomes, behaviors, and attendant beliefs, such as Status, caballerismo , and John Henryism (Arciniega et al, 2008; Gordon, et al, 2013; James, 1994; Merritt et al, 2004; Noar & Morokoff, 2002; Ojeda et al, 2008; Shearer et al, 2005).…”

“…(Arciniega, Anderson, Tovar-Blank, & Tracey, 2008; Galvan, Bogart, Wagner, Klein, & Chen, 2014; Ojeda, Rosales, & Good, 2008). Typically, machismo is framed as a risk factor, and caballerismo is framed as a protective factor (Arciniega et al, 2008; Ojeda & Piña-Watson, 2014). For example, caballerismo has been found to be associated with indicators of self-efficacy, such as higher active coping (Ojeda & Liang, 2014) and higher self-esteem (Ojeda & Piña-Watson, 2014).…”

Given these results, beliefs in traditionally masculine norms may have implications for health-related beliefs and sexual risk within heterosexual, dyadic relationships.…”

Although studies have shown that adherence to traditional masculine norms (i.e., Status, Toughness, Antifemininity) affect men’s attitudes toward sexual health, there is little research on how men’s adherence to these norms affect them in the context of heterosexual, dyadic relationships. Among 296 young pregnant couples, we investigated the extent to which adherence to traditional masculine norms affected male and female partners’ own condom-related beliefs (i.e., condom self-efficacy, positive condom attitudes) and that of their partners. We tested an interdependence model using a dyadic-analytic approach to path analysis. We also tested for differences across gender and race-ethnicity (i.e., African American, Hispanic). Results showed that adherence to the Antifemininity and Toughness masculine norms predicted negative condom-related beliefs, whereas, overall, adherence to the Status norm predicted positive condom-related beliefs. Men’s and women’s adherence to traditional norms about masculinity were associated with their partner’s condom self-efficacy, and moderated associations based on gender and race-ethnicity were detected. In contrast, each dyad member’s traditional masculine norms were not associated with his or her partner’s positive condom attitudes. Taken together, findings indicated that the roles of traditional masculinity and condom-related beliefs in sexual health should be addressed within the context of relationships and associations between masculine norms and condom-related beliefs are not uniformly negative.

“…Caballerismo is linked to more positive attributes such as social responsibility, emotional connectedness (Arciniega et al 2008), and a good provider for the family. Caballerismo has also been linked to positive traits such as self-esteem (Ojeda and Piña-Watson 2014). Just as machismo/caballerismo are the gender expectations for men, marianismo is the gender expectations for women.…”

‘Love and trust, you can be blinded’: HIV risk within relationships among Latina women in Miami, Florida

et al. 2016

Objectives: Latina women are disproportionately affected by HIV in the US, and account for 30% of all HIV infections in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The main risk for Latina women is heterosexual contact. Little is known about the relational and cultural factors that may impact women’s HIV risk perception. This study aims to describe Latina women’s perception of their HIV risk within a relational, cultural, and linguistic context. Design: Eight focus groups of Latina women (n = 28), four English speaking groups and four Spanish speaking groups, were conducted between December 2013 and May 2014. Women were recruited from a diversion program for criminal justice clients and by word of mouth. Eligibility criteria included the following: self-identify as Hispanic/Latino, 18–49 years of age, and self-identify as heterosexual. A two-level open coding analytic approach was conducted to identify themes across groups. Results: Most participants were foreign-born (61%) and represented the following countries: Cuba (47%), Honduras (17.5%), Mexico (12%), as well as Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, Colombia, and Venezuela (15%). Participant ages ranged between 18 and 49, with a mean age of 32 years. Relationship factors were important in perceiving HIV risk including male infidelity, women’s trust in their male partners, relationship type, and getting caught up in the heat of the moment. For women in the English speaking groups, drug use and trading sex for drugs were also reasons cited for putting them at risk for HIV. English speaking women also reported that women should take more responsibility regarding condom use. Conclusion: Findings emphasize the importance of taking relational and cultural context into account when developing HIV prevention programs for Latina women. Interventions targeting English speaking Latina women should focus on women being more proactive in their sexual health; interventions focused on Spanish speaking women might target their prevention messages to either men or couples.

“…It also encompasses traits traditionally associated with marianismo, including nurturance, family centeredness, social responsibility, and emotional connectedness. This positive framework of Hispanic masculinity is important as it has been found to serve as a protective factor against the role of machismo on men's self-esteem, coping strategies, and positive reframing of negative life incidents (Ojeda & Liang, 2014;Ojeda & Piña-Watson, 2014) Unfortunately, caballerismo is a concept largely ignored in research studies examining health and behavioral outcomes among Hispanic men in the United States.…”
