Performance autoethnography is qualitative research methodology that aims to problematize resistances between the "self" (auto-) and the collective (ethno-) in the act of writing (-graphy). The article thus aims to discuss the theoretical and practical construction of performance autoethnography and its applicability as a qualitative research and analytical method in the field of Collective Health through a performance autoethnography writing. By problematizing the epistemic and ontological basis of performance autoethnography, pointing to possibilities for its development and inclusion in studies in the field of Collective Health, the article presents performance autoethnography as a strategy to expand the possibilities for social justice, democratization, and pluralisms in and from research practices.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how men's involvement in prenatal care and childbirth affects their perception of masculinity and identity.
- Using qualitative methods, researchers conducted in-depth interviews with nine men actively participating in the childbirth experience between April 2015 and November 2016.
- Findings indicate that these men redefine their masculinity through their roles in childbirth and gain a sense of empowerment in self-care, contributing to the development of a new male identity in today's society.
