Summary

The authors identify the serious limitations that result from viewing male caregivers through the lens of womens experiences, and call for an unbiased and fresh perspective in future research. Special consideration is given to men who care for a family member with dementia; fathers of adult children with mental retardation; gay male caregivers with partners with AIDS; and sons and parent care.
