摘要：We investigate how gender influences research on fathering and the narratives that are produced in one study in urban South Africa. We draw on “doing” and “undoing” gender frameworks to examine three domains of the research process: 1) research design; 2) the data collection interview; and 3) data analysis and interpretation. Through close examination of methodology and reporting patterns, we argue that each domain represents an interactional context in which actors assess the drawbacks and benefits of “doing” and “undoing” gender. This analysis advances our understanding of the ways in which the research process unwittingly sustains parenting as a primarily feminine activity but also presents opportunities for resisting and altering dominant gendered norms about parenting.
