This course introduces students to the theoretical concepts and impact of gender and sexuality in everyday life. Various feminist, queer, and other gender-oriented theories are considered and employed as students explore how definitions of femininity, masculinity, and sexuality have been created, maintained, negotiated, and resisted. Particular attention is paid to the complicated relationships between individuals and social systems, and to the ways in which class, race, ethnicity, age, and other identity categories intersect with definitions and representations of gender and sexuality.
Despite some limitations, Wikipedia is now the first source of information about the world for hundreds of millions of people. As a reference work, it shares values of neutrality and verifiability with traditional encyclopedias, but the open-source nature of the project makes it dynamic and participatory. Think about how casually and regularly you rely on Wikipedia for information—now, think about how often you’ve heard casual dismissal of its reliability. Using topics in gender, women, and sexuality studies, we will think critically about both the flaws and utility of Wikipedia—and how we can improve it. The project may be undertaken either in groups or as individuals.
