Description
Study of psychological factors related to women and men, including traditional and current models of femininity and masculinity in social, occupational, and sex roles. There will be a focus on current and historically controversial issues in men's and women's lives, with discussion about the nature and development of gender roles, relationships and sexuality, and stereotypes about gender and behavior specifically. Male and female student experiences will be used to address the ways in which gender is constructed in our society. Students will be encouraged to engage in self-reflection and critical thinking to help support, or refute, theories presented.
