He spends maybe ten minutes near the end talking about men, but your point stands. I think most of the research in gender studies has been on the female experience, so maybe there is less academic material as a result of that.... but it still annoys me as well. Men become homeless, go to jail, and fail out of school in way greater numbers than women, and still conversations like these are dominated by women's issues.
The best part of this was "these must have been sisters getting ready for church" was the greatest one liner of this lecture.
I love sociology. never even thought about gender in such a way.
Interesting lecture, but where does the convention of refering to our sexual organs as plumbing come from?
i like the picute at 46:38
Very telling about the underlying value system where in 3 lectures about gender, the only mention of men is how they mess with women.
