Discussion Questions
• Ask students to consider the benefits and consequences associated with being their
gender. What is the one thing they wish they could do but are prevented from doing
because of gender role concerns? What is the source of this concern and who, at the
bottom line, is causing this concern?
• Ask students to list all the persons and institutions that influenced their gender role
development. Encourage students to think about both positive and negative influences
that shaped who they are as sexual beings.
• Ask students to discuss how referring to the other gender as "the opposite sex" affects
our perception of gender differences and similarities. How might it polarize
relationships between genders?
• Is it good to be androgynous? Does androgyny “dilute” one's gender identity? In your

opinion, should we as a society work toward eliminating the so-called “gender
differences”? Why or why not?
• Have students discuss the controversy surrounding “corrective surgery” for intersexed
people. Is it ethically appropriate to perform a surgery on an infant or child without
his or her consent? What may be the ramifications of such a decision?
• What if you chose not to be a male or a female? Have students discuss some of the
benefits and downfalls of not being categorized by gender terms. The discussion
could be broadened to include issues faced by parents when they have an intersex
child.
• Consider transgenderism and transsexualism. Ask students at what age they began to
identify as male or female and to imagine the challenges faced by individuals whose
genital sex and gender identity do not match.
Guest Speakers
• Invite a transgender or transsexual person to come to your classroom to discuss
challenges, personal transition process, or simply to tell his or her story. Many
organizations that serve the gay and lesbian community also provide services to the
transgender/ transsexual community.
• Ask a medical professional to discuss GLBT and/or trans healthcare issues. The
discussion could include the need to establish training and protocol for the medical
community on how to provide services to transgender or transsexual patients.
• Ask representatives from local community action groups (e.g., the Men’s Liberation
Front) to address the class regarding their views on gender role socialization. The
closer in age to your class cohort the more active these conversations become.
• Someone from the Women's Studies or Men's Studies departments (or from another
educational institution in your community) could discuss gender differences and
similarities.
• Ask the Public Health department in your community to provide a speaker on how
gender stereotypes adversely affect public health through their influences on sexual
behavior. Public health department figures can quote local statistics on unwanted
pregnancy and STIs and tend to be particularly effective presenters.
Teaching Ideas
Male and Female, Masculine and Feminine
Brainstorming: Separate the males and females in the class, and (depending on the size of
the class) have students form groups of approximately six to eight students per group.
One student is the designated note taker and will record responses on unlined butcher
paper. Have students brainstorm the pros and cons of being male or female in our society
today (the men brainstorm the pros/cons of being male and the women of being female.)
Allow students 15 to 20 minutes for this activity. When time is up, have students read
their lists aloud.
Next, have students go over their lists within their groups, noting which of the items are
biological or physical (i.e., PMS) and which are socially or culturally constructed (i.e., the
wage gap).
Ask the students if they can identify any patterns – for instance, do the pros seem to be
more biologically based or socially constructed? Or, does there seem to be a combination
of the two influences? Discuss as a class whether the so-called “gender differences”
appear to be innate, socially constructed, or influenced by both biology and society.
Student Reflections: Write a short story about a child whose gender is kept secret until
puberty. How will the baby's parents treat the infant? What are some examples of
comments you might hear from relatives and friends? What challenges would this child
face? What benefits would the child gain? How would this experience affect the child's
puberty and adulthood?
Fish Bowl: Use the fish bowl discussion strategy for this activity (see an overview here:
http://www.ion.uillinois.edu/resources/otai/Fishbowl.asp). Men in the middle of the “fish
bowl” discuss, defend, or deny the statements about men below; women observe and take
note of their own reactions. Reverse: women in the middle discuss, defend, or deny the
statements about women below; men observe and take note of their own reactions. As a
class, discuss student reactions, what they learned about the other and their own genders.
Statements for Men: Men (1) are actively discouraged from displaying emotions,
especially those of extreme sadness such as crying or elation; (2) often experience high
expectations from their fathers and role models in terms of occupational success and the
creation and maintenance of a secure family; (3) frequently experience pressure to be
sexually inclined, active, and ready to go at a moment's notice; (4) find it difficult to ask
for nurturing and to express their dependency needs, among others, especially to other
men; (5) are expected to assume roles of leadership, to be comfortable with risk, and
maintain emotional balance throughout a crisis; (6) want to have large penises; (7) rarely
look to women as role models. Statements for Women: Women (1) have mood swings
during their period and will act erratically at this time; (2) don't really need to work or
develop specialized skills for entry into a profession because they can always find a man
to take care of them; (3) are often troubled by the sexual double standard and feel they
must project a good-girl image while men can do whatever they want with whomever they
want and whenever they want; (4) cannot feel fulfilled unless they become mothers and
raise their children; (5) want to have large breasts; (6) have very few female role models.
Gender-Identity Formation
Fact Finding Groups: Ask students to complete Handout 5.1: Gender Development to
assess their understanding of the role of chromosomes, hormones, and differentiation of
structures in biological gender development.
Student Reflections: Ask students to discuss how their life would be different if they had
been born a different gender. Have them consider relationships, activities, self-esteem,
feelings, advantages, etc. Next, ask students to consider how they would treat a classmate,
their best friend, or their significant other if they discovered he or she were a different
gender. What questions might they want to ask this person?
Value Clarification: Follow the generic rules for this activity found in the Appendix and
use the following statements: (1) A woman is very unlikely to have the emotional stability
to be President of the U.S., or Chief Executive Officer of a major corporation, (2) Men
and women are more different than similar in terms of how they think about the world, (3)
Most men solve problems through action, most women solve problems through dialogue,
(4) Men are not as good as women at parenting babies.
Critical Thinking: Ask students to read one of the recent articles critiquing the sex-
reassignment case previously reported by John Money. This can double as a library
assignment if you have students find the article themselves (1997 issues of Time,
Newsweek, or Rolling Stone). Students can write a two- to three-page summary of the
original case, the reports by Money, and the current rethinking, ending with their thoughts
as to what the case has taught us about sex-reassignment AND research. You will need
copies of these articles yourself, and can either get copies ahead of time to see how
difficult it will be for students, or ask students to turn in their copy with their summary, or
offer extra-credit to a student to act as a "research assistant" in tracking them down for
you.
Transsexualism and Transgenderism

Brainstorm: After an introductory lecture on gender, have the class brainstorm issues or
concerns they imagine a transgender or transsexual individual may encounter in his or her
day-to-day existence (the list may include incorrect assumptions about sexual orientation,
which restroom to use, legal ID, healthcare issues and discrimination). Many students are
surprised to discover the things that they take for granted every day. This is an excellent
activity to complete prior to a guest speaker panel.
Gender Roles
Student Reflections: Read aloud the excerpt from the text regarding the gender-egalitarian
society on the Vanatinai Island. Break the class into pairs or small groups, and have
students discuss the following questions: Where in North America (or under what
sociological/cultural contexts) are gender roles and ideologies more pronounced? Why?
Where (or under what sociological/cultural contexts) is there more gender egalitarianism?
Why? Is it possible to reach full gender egalitarianism in our society? Why or why not?
Discuss as a class.
Brainstorming: Provide students with the following research results from Sprecher,
Barbee, and Schwartz (1995). "Was It Good For You, Too?" Gender differences in first
sexual intercourse experiences. The Journal of Sex Research, 32(1), 3-15. Over 1,000
college students completed a questionnaire describing their first sexual experience. It was
found that men were more anxious and experienced more pleasure; women experienced
more guilt. These differences were the same regardless of the length or stage of the
relationship. Ask students to generate a list of explanations for these results.
Picture This: Find pictures of males and females of different ages engaged in a variety of
activities. Some pictures should have obvious gender clues, some should have misleading
gender clues, and some should contain only subtle or no gender clues. You need to know
the actual gender of the people in the pictures. Ask students to determine the gender of
each person from the pictures then discuss with the class the clues they used to make their
decisions. Finally, provide feedback about their accuracy and finish with a discussion of
why they may have made errors or correct decisions.
• You could prepare for this assignment in one semester by having students look for
and bring in pictures you can keep that meet the above criteria. Discuss with this
group of students how difficult it was to find specific kinds of pictures, and what
they learned from the assignment. Students could also swap pictures and engage
in the exercise above.
Silent Brainstorming: Hang poster-size paper around the room (two for each wall, one
with a male symbol, one with the female symbol). Provide students with felt pens (or ask
them to bring their own felt pen to this class) and have them silently move from poster to
poster reading what is already there and adding their own additions. The topic is to list as
many male characteristics and female characteristics as possible (using rules for
brainstorming). No one is allowed to talk, or to deface what anyone else has written.
After 10 to 15 minutes, have students return to their seats and SILENTLY write their
reactions to this activity. Once they have completed the written assignment, allow at least
10 to15 minutes for students to verbally discuss the activity and their reactions.
Dualing Role Plays: Have a male and female student role play a “typical” gender
stereotyped interaction (e.g., asking for a first date). Then have the same students reverse
roles. Add “consultants” to this role play so that multiple students of either sex can coach
each of the two participants as they attempt to reverse roles. This is a fun exercise and the
more the merrier!
Role Play: Prior to this activity, lead the class in a brainstorm activity in order to define
what the students agree are “essential characteristics” of a person who would fit the
following stereotypes: Euro-American male, Euro-American female, Hispanic-American
male, Hispanic-American female, African-American male, African-American female,
Asian-American male, and Asian-American female. Have a student prepare notecards with
these essential characteristics, and also select a gender for each notecard.
• Ask for 8 volunteers. Give each one a notecard that depicts a role the student will
have to play (gender and ethnic background, as well as the essential
characteristics). Inform the class that they are going to observe the panel in a
discussion of where they should go to eat and what they should do afterwards. The
class's task is to determine the gender and ethnicity of each member on the panel.
Panelists must try to assume the role of their stereotyped character and provide an
honest portrait to the best of their ability. Give the panel 10 to 15 minutes to act
out their skit then have the class guess the roles.
Have panelists talk about what it was like to be in their roles, and have the whole
class discuss their reactions, focusing on how stereotypes may have developed
from kernels of truth but that they are seldom completely accurate.
Experiments: Have your students complete the Bem Sex Role Inventory (an online
version is at http://garote.bdmonkeys.net/bsri.html) and bring their score to class. Ask
students to indicate whether they are masculine, feminine, androgynous, or
undifferentiated by a show of hands.
Have students discuss the validity and reliability of their results by asking questions such
as, “What do the terms ‘masculine’ and ‘feminine’ mean?”, “Can we capture ‘masculinity’
and ‘femininity’ on a questionnaire?”, “How might such ratings be helpful and/or
hurtful?”, “Which terms did not seem to ‘fit’ with ‘masculinity’ or ‘femininity?’”, and
“Do ratings on questionnaires really translate into behaviors?”
