Ever hear of "The War of the Sexes"?  In this class we will go beyond this well-known saying to explore how different cultures assign power through gender.  We will touch upon the differences between gender, sex and sexuality, but we will focus on the connections between gender and cultural power

This class will include lecture, discussion and a classroom activity.
