Multiple genders, gender-neutral pronouns and bathrooms, X designations, and other manifestations of degendering are becoming common, and yet the two-gender structure of our social world persists. Underneath the persistence of the binary and its discriminatory norms and expectations lurks the continuance of men's power and privilege. So there is the continued need to valorize the accomplishments of women, especially those of denigrated groups. This succinct and thoughtful book by one of the world's foremost sociologists of gender shines a light on both sides of this paradox - processes in the fragmentation of gender that are undermining the binary and processes in the performance of gender that reinforce the binary, and the pros and cons of each. The conclusion of the book discusses why we haven't had a gender revolution and how degendering would go a long way in creating gender equality." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sex role. 650 0 $a Gender identity. 650 7 $a Gender binaries. $2 homoit 650 7 $a Gender roles. $2 homoit 650 2 $a Gender Identity 650 6 $a RoÌle selon le sexe. 650 6 $a IdentiteÌ sexuelle. 650 7 $a sex role. $2 aat 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Sociology / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Gender identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939593 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Documents d'information. $2 rvmgf 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20220601010604.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=25BD8EE4E17011EC82262A731FECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
