DESCRIPTION
This course will explore the comparative study of gender and sexuality across different cultures. Topics may include how different societies define femininity and masculinity, and how work, play, language, appearance, and sexual expression come to be labelled as ?appropriate? or even ?natural? for women and men. This course will examine non-binary gender systems, the variations in the sexual division of labor and economic organization, and the impact of forces such as colonialism and globalization on gender issues.
