| genderflex definition: The Kaleidoscope of Gender Joan Z. Spade, Catherine G. Valentine, 2008 I have found Spade and Valentine's Kaleidoscope of Gender to be the most effective reader that I have used in my undergraduate Sociology of Gender class, and I was delighted to see what promises to be an even better second edition that recently arrived. -Linda Grant, University of Georgia In a substantial theoretical introduction, Spade and Valentine move their discussion forward by introducing their kaleidoscope metaphor which is comprised of the prisms of culture...that intersect to produce patterns of difference and systems of privilege. Because it captures the fluidity and uniqueness of the intricate patterns, the kaleidoscope is a valuable analytical tool. Though it enters a terrain already littered with terminology, this prismatic understanding of gender has great potential for transforming current conceptualizations. -Jennifer Keys, North Central College Examining the elusive, evolving construct of gender in a unique text/ reader format An accessible, timely, and stimulating introduction to the sociology of gender, The Kaleidoscope of Gender: Prisms, Patterns, and Possibilities, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive analysis of key ideas, theories, and applications in this field as viewed through the metaphor of a kaleidoscope. This collection of creative articles by top scholars explains how the complex, evolving pattern of gender is constructed interpersonally, institutionally, and culturally and challenges students to question how gender shapes their daily lives. Like the prior edition, the Second Edition maintains a focus on contemporary contributions to the field while incorporating classical and theoretical arguments to provide a broad framework. Integrating a cross-cultural focus and intersectional inquiry, this unique text/reader |

| genderflex definition: The Unfinished Revolution Kathleen Gerson, 2011-07-07 The vast changes in family life have often been blamed for declining morality and unhappy children. Drawing upon pioneering research with the children of the gender revolution, Kathleen Gerson reveals that it is not a lack of family values, but rigid social and economic forces that make it difficult to live out those values. The Unfinished Revolution makes clear recommendations for a new flexibility at work and at home that benefits families, encourages a thriving economy, and helps women and men integrate love and work. |
| genderflex definition: Baudrillard's Challenge Victoria Grace, 2002-01-04 This controversial book is the first systematic feminist reading of the work of Jean Baudrillard, one of the most pivotal figures in contemporary cultural theory, and is essential reading for students of feminist theory, sociology and cultural theory. Drawing on the full range of Baudrillard's writings the author engages in a debate with: * the work of Luce Irigaray, Judith Butler and Rosi Braidotti on identity, power and desire * the feminist concern with 'difference' as an emancipatory construct * writings on transgenderism and the performance of gender * feminist concerns about the objectification of women. Through this critical engagement Grace reveals some of the limitations of some contemporary feminist theorising around gender and identity, patriarchy and power, and in so doing offers a way forward for contemporary feminist thought. |

| genderflex definition: Queer Universes Wendy Gay Pearson, Veronica Hollinger, Joan Gordon, 2008-03-01 Contestations over the meaning and practice of sexuality have become increasingly central to cultural self-definition and critical debates over issues of identity, citizenship and the definition of humanity itself. In an era when a religious authority can declare lesbians antihuman while some nations legalise same-sex marriage and are becoming increasingly tolerant of a variety of non-normative sexualities, it is hardly surprising that science fiction, in turn, takes up the task of imagining a diverse range of queer and not-so-queer futures. The essays in Queer Universes investigate both contemporary and historical practices of representing sexualities and genders in science fiction literature. Queer Universes opens with Wendy Pearson’s award-winning essay on reading sf queerly and goes on to include discussions about ‘sextrapolation’ in New Wave science fiction, ‘stray penetration’ in William Gibson’s cyberpunk fiction, the queering of nature in ecofeminist science fiction, and the radical challenges posed to conventional science fiction in the work of important writers such as Samuel R. Delany, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Joanna Russ. In addition, Queer Universes offers an interview with Nalo Hopkinson and a conversation about queer lives and queer fictions by authors Nicola Griffith and Kelley Eskridge. |

| genderflex definition: GenderSell Lee E. Robert, Judith C. Tingley, 1999-04-02 GenderSell is the first and only book to offer specific techniques on overcoming the single greatest barrier to effective sales -- selling to the opposite sex. Despite a decade of important research on how differences between the sexes affect personal and workplace relationships, until now virtually every book on selling has ignored these differences. And despite the fact that women make approximately 85 percent of the purchasing decisions on most products and services and now constitute more than 25 percent of today's sales force, nearly all relevant books have been written by men for men in sales about selling to men. Tom Peters, Ken Blanchard, and other management experts have proposed that companies must learn how to market, sell, and advertise differently to men and women in order to stay competitive. Now at long last, psychologist and workplace communication expert Judith Tingley and veteran sales professional Lee E. Robert bring you this essential guide. Based on research, including the authors' Sales Preference Survey, conducted with more than 600 participants, Tingley and Robert provide detailed examples, specific techniques, and provocative case studies that will help sales professionals increase their success, their revenues, and their profits. The authors answer many important questions: When should you focus more on the interpersonal process and when on the product? What quality do customers say they like most about men in sales? What characteristic do they think is strongest in female sales professionals? Is the timing of the close different with male and female clients? The industry buzz has begun: In response to articles on the Gendersell topic that have appeared in trade publications and to training seminars offered by the authors, executives from a wide range of industries -- high tech to automobile dealerships, insurance companies to home builders and health care delivery services -- have been clamoring for GenderSell to make it an integral part of their worldwide sales strategies. |
