Abstract
The aim of the study is to analyse the social representations of paternity (s) in young adults of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas. Research is epistemologically framed within the so-called socio-constructionist perspective, social representations and everyday life. Theoretical references account for feminist and gender postulates; of masculinity and identity, family and parenthood. It is a qualitative investigation, where the questionnaire on free association, semi-structured interview and focus groups was applied, top-down and bottom-up analyses were carried out. Discursive analysis is based on the meaning of parenthood; the relationship between male identity and parenthood, and finally, the emotional relationships in parenthood are analysed.
