Course Description:
This course seeks to examine how people experience gender – what it means to be a man or woman – and sexuality in a variety of historical and cultural contexts. We will explore how gender and sexuality relate to other categories of social identity and differences, such as race and ethnicity, economic and social standing, urban or rural life, etc. One basic goal of the course is to learn how to critically assess media and other popular representations of gender roles and stereotypes. Another is to gain a greater sense of the diversity of human social practices and beliefs around the world.
