What You'll Learn

Gender is one of the most fundamental distinctions that shape social life. This course will examine a variety of sociological approaches to the study of gendered behaviours, structures, and institutions. We will learn about the social practices and processes that create gender distinctions and inequalities, and how social institutions affect women and men in distinct ways. We will also interrogate the influence of gender on areas such as media, family, education, paid employment, care work, emotion, and violence. In addition, we will explore how the effects of gender intersect with race, class, sexuality and other social locations.
