1. What does it mean to say that we live in a gender binary system? How does the gender binary system work? What are its limitations? How can we deconstruct it?
2. Using an intersectional analysis, reflect on one particular issue or historical moment in this module or the readings. There are many examples to choose from including eating disorders, the prevalence of sexual assault experienced by Native American women, abortion rights, masculinity in the media, or the cult of domesticity, for starters. What does this example reveal about how gender intersects with other social categories like sexuality, class, and race? How do binary divisions also matter to the constructions of class, race, sexuality, and/or nationality/citizenship status in your example?
