Who is a woman and who or what defines "her" This class investigates these questions by exploring feminist writings about female embodiment and the social construction of gender. A commitment to women's equality has been a foundation for feminism and also the subject of heated contestation, as various authors and activists have questioned who or what defines the category "woman". As this course explores feminists' concerns with gender equality, it also highlight intersecting categories of race, class, and nationality, and it probes the problems in locating "woman" as a fixed, trans-cultural category. The course texts include historical treatises about women's liberation, writings by and about Muslim feminists and transgender activists, contemporary feminist critiques of popular culture, and diary entries by various women about their experiences with work, family, health, and relationships. Ms. White Two 75-minute sessions.
