This course examines gender as a \"taken for granted\" social difference in our society. We begin by examining definitions of gender. Do gender and biological sex always \"match\". How is gender socially constructed? How do other social categories, such as race, class, and sexuality, influence sex and gender? Then we explore the relationships between gender and social institutions including work, education, the media, the family, and the legal and political systems. Throughout the course, we focus on understanding how people experience gender in everyday life.
