Pre-Conference Workshop on “Social Construction of Gender and Sexuality” by Dr. Warren J. Blumenfeld
Date: 14th August 2024 | Time : 03.00 PM – 04.00 PM(IST)
- Overview
The social construction of gender and sexuality refers to the understanding that gender roles and sexual identities are not biologically determined but rather shaped by societal norms, cultural practices, and historical contexts. This perspective posits that what is considered masculine or feminine, as well as acceptable forms of sexuality, varies across different cultures and time periods. It challenges the binary view of gender and emphasizes the fluidity and diversity of gender expressions and sexual orientations. By recognizing these constructs, it allows for a more inclusive and equitable approach to understanding human identity and relationships, highlighting the need for social change and the dismantling of rigid stereotypes.
Key Takeaways
- Gender and Sexuality are Culturally Defined
- Challenging the Gender Binary
- Variability across Cultures and Time
- Impact of Social Norms
- Advocacy for Inclusivity.
