Gender Discussions
Some resources discussed in class today with Doug Shirley and Wendy Chapin…
Sandra Bem and the Sex Role Inventory
John Gottman on emotional flooding (men flood more reliably/often than women)
Gender Unicorn (in Spanish!)
Discussion on masturbation past and present and “fodder” and discussions with youth
Discussion around Jesus as a symbol of gender…the image with Jesus folded over as male/female from Catherine Skurja…musings from the Interwebs…Sarah Silverman…
Discussion about Frozen, Let it Go and …this isn’t redemption, the end of the movie is redemption when she is able to return home and be welcomed. This feels like “Holy Saturday”, Sarah Coakley’s crucible and contemplation and prayer…pleasure principles; the pilgrimage often required to go into oneself to find ones true self. Elsa begins acting like she doesn’t give a fuck, but later gives “just the right amount of fucks”.
