Chapter 11: Understanding Gender Bias |
Some of the most enduring preconceptions in our society are
related to sex and gender. As you learned in this chapter, sex
and gender are two different things, and one does not necessarily
imply the other. So why is it that these preconceptions persist?
How is it that reason and truth can fail to persuade?
Begin your investigation by visiting the Gender and Society
Web page at www.trinity.edu/~mkearl/gender.html
Then write a five-page essay answering the question, "Why
do preconceptions based on gender persist?" Use the Gender
and Society Web page and its related links to garner support
for your opinion. Include a Works Cited page at the end of
your paper.
