Öz
The identity of husband with marriage brings about changes in men's lives and this identity transforms in itself with the changes in the social structure. Based on this perspective, the main focus of this study, which aims to contribute to the understanding and solution of marriage and family problems, is the male identity in the marital relationship. In this study, the effects of education level and socioeconomic status on the reproduction and performance of masculinity in the marital relationship were questioned. Within the scope of the study, the construction processes of gender role stereotypes of the participants, the effects of these roles on marital attitudes, spouse selection, perception of the husband role in marriage and the maintenance of this role were investigated. In the study, which was designed according to the phenomenology design, one of the qualitative research methods, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 married men living in various provinces of Türkiye using purposive sampling method, and the data obtained were analyzed. Based on the findings, it was seen that traditional masculinity patterns are effective on men with higher education. It was observed that they often experience a contradiction between acting patriarchal and sensitive to gender equality and that traditional masculinity representation is reproduced in the marital relationship through the position of being a husband.
