Course Summary
4. Over the course of the semester, we have studied quite a few ideas on how exactly people develop their gender. We have looked at physical influences, feminist and developmental theories, social influences, etc. throughout the life span. We have also explored different ways that our sex and gender affect our lives (e.g., experiences in school, religion, personal relationship, job selection/experiences, health, deviance/crime, politics, etc.). Now that you have had some time to think about it, how do you personally think that people develop their gender? How does sex/gender impact us? In your own life, how have sex and gender limited you or allowed you to act in a certain way or get involved in particular kinds of activity?
