Constructing Gender and Sexuality Reflection
Constructing Gender and Sexuality Reflection
Most people believe that men and women are different types of people. In this weekly reflection, you will explain your theory about how and why this is (or isn’t). In the first part of your reflection, explain the ways men and women are different. You may discuss the fact that men’s and women’s bodies are different, but the focus of the paper should be on the fact that men and women act differently and are treated differently by other people (Gender Role Socialization/Theories of Gender and Sexuality/Gender Inequality – sections from your text). Be sure to discuss (1) how men and women are different and (2) what contributes to these differences. Use specific concepts from your readings and any supplemental material I’ve provided, including Janet Hyde\’s Gender Similarities Hypothesis and Doing Gender from West and Zimmerman, to support your ideas. If you use any information from sources not found in our text or Canvas materials, I will expect you to source/cite the material.
Next, explain how you know your theory to be true. How and under what circumstances did you learn to think this way? The content of your theory will not affect your grade; the organization, style, connection to course concepts, and coherence of your paper will.
To earn the most points, be specific and clearly connect your thoughts, theories, ideas to concepts from our course materials and include our works cited.
