Ep 4: Gender vs. Sex (Ft. Maya Glenn)

Can you remember the first time that you heard gender and sex are distinct?This week, Yancy is joined with Maya who breaks down what Gender Essentialism is. The theory suggests that a person’s essence is either feminine/female or masculine/male. Maya expands on how this concept is flawed and brings nuance to sexuality, gender, and sex through a sociological lens. Don’t forget to tag #thatsexcitingpod or @ us to let us know what you think of this week’s episode. Let’s keep in touch on social media!Follow your host @yancycheryInstagram: @thatsexcitingTwitter: @thatsexciting_Facebook: thatsxcitingEmail: contact@thatsexciting.coSupport & Donatehttps://paypal.me/thatsexcitingFollow today’s guest Maya!Instagram: @intimacywithmayaThings mentionedSexual Greenflags explanation from Intimacy with Mayahttps://www.instagram.com/p/CXjzsEYvXc6/ Loops and instrumentals by J.u.D.https://www.instagram.com/judexperience/Gender Essentialism Is Flawed — Here’s Whyhttps://www.healthline.com/health/gender-essentialismInformation mentioned:Becoming a Gendered Body: Practices of Preschoolshttps://observatorio.campus-virtual.org/uploads/21717_Martin_ASR1998_Becoming-gendered.pdf The Egg and the Sperm: How Science Has Constructed a Romance Based on Stereotypical Male-Female Roleshttps://web.stanford.edu/~eckert/PDF/Martin1991.pdf LGBT+ Statisticshttps://news.gallup.com/poll/329708/lgbt-identification-rises-latest-estimate.aspxThe future of sex and gender in psychology: Five challenges to the gender binaryhttps://psycnet.apa.org/record/2018-32185-001 Bilingual Glossary on Gender Identityhttps://www.jurisource.ca/prj/phpnfzuAL1522955217.pdf Hosted on Acast.
