So I'm resitting unit 1 to strengthen my overall grade, and my sociology teacher gave me a little booklet full of everything I need to revise from unit 1 since it was so long ago.
However, while this is very helpful. I have a problem... In my Unit 1 folder I have NOTHING on perspectives (feminist, marxist etc on gender/identity).
Plus, he included a few studies that he thinks we will need to know, and even though I have notes on about 40 sociologists/studies in my folder, I have NOTHING on the ones he has stated. I haven't even heard of most of them.
I dont understand why I seem to be missing so much! I didnt miss a lesson in my first year, and I'm always taking notes on just about everything. :/
So, if anyone has notes, or knows anything on the following areas, it would be awesome if you could share them with me! Thankyou!
Murphey & Elwood - On how children gain gender identity from home
Billington - On the importance of physical attractiveness
Wilkinson - Gender Quake
Croteau & Hoynes - Media influences
Provenzo - Media influences and gender
Ferguson - Magazines & gender socialisation
Gauntlett - The media
Connell - Definitions of complicit, subordinate and marginalised masculinity
Post modern explanations about gender identity
Liberal, Marxist & radical feminist ideas about gender
Post modern explanations about identity in general
Thanks again!
