SStudies of masculinity have shown that masculinity is a socially acknowledged gender status.  Rather than automatically attaining such a status simply through physical maturation, boys must ‘earn’ such status by matching the social conventions associated with masculinity. Boys  earn such status through ‘doing gender’, that is, acting in ways that are assessed by others  as meeting gendered norms. Failure to meet these norms can result in suggestions that boys are unmanly. For elite Romans, masculinity was attained through the domination of others, including spouse, children and enemies. Though Jesus is presented as a child in the Infancy  Gospel of Thomas, his actions lend themselves to interpretation in terms of expectations for elite Roman males. In this text, Jesus is described as behaving in ways normally associated with hegemonic masculinity in the Roman world. He is able to defeat opponents in violent ways  through the power of his word, he is able to teach his teachers, and he is able to provide for  his family. Throughout the text, Jesus is described more in terms of an adult male than a child.
