ANTH 31 Gender in Cross-Cultural Perspective
Sex (biological differences between men and women) and gender (social constructions of those differences) are not straightforward or natural. Gender inequalities are also not straightforward and natural. This course thus pays close attention to issues of power and inequality, including the ways in which Western gender ideals have been imposed on people in other parts of the world. We will also engage with perceptions, images, stories, encounters, games, connections, disconnections, practice and resistance.
