SO 309 - Gender, Sex, & Sexuality

An examination of the social and cultural significance of gender, sex, and sexuality as integral and fundamental to the cultural, economic, political, and social organization of the United States. Using theoretical and methodological approaches, grounded in studies of gender and sexuality, the course dissects how gender, sex, and sexuality are interwoven in the micro-interactions and macro-social structures. The course examines distinctions between the concepts and how gender, sex, and sexuality within social institutions intersect with class, race, and age.

Four credits.
