GS 315 - Sociology of Gender and Sexuality

Course Cross-listed with SOC 315
3 credit(s)
This course examines gender and sexuality and important social categories. We investigate the ways in which categories of gender and sexuality structure people’s lives and shape people’s identities. Through these examinations, we explore the interconnectedness of people’s experiences of gender and sexuality. We focus on the ways in which gender and sexuality are socially constructed by society. We examine how what we are taught about gender and sexuality affects our identity, relationships with others, and our social status.
