Gender studies

Gender studies is an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to analysing gender identity and gendered representation. It includes women's studies (concerning women, feminism, gender, and politics), men's studies and queer studies. Its rise to prominence, especially in Western universities after 1990, has been noted as a success of deconstructionism. Sometimes, gender studies is offered together with study of sexuality. These disciplines study gender and sexuality in the fields of literature, linguistics, human geography, history, political science, archaeology, economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology, cinema, media studies, human development, law, public health and medicine. It also analyses how race, ethnicity, location, class, nationality, and disability intersect with the categories of gender and sexuality.
Gender studies could also be called gender-oriented sociology

Gender Binary

The belief that there are two genders: male and female. This, of course, is incorrect because gender is a social construct. But it is still ok to identify as a gender. If labeling yourself makes you feel more comfortable that is perfectly acceptable, but that is your identity not the rest of the world has to revolve around gender. yay. stop being bigots and open your mind to new ideas.
Person 1: Why is the world centered around the belief of gender binary?
Person 2: Because humans suck. At least global warming will kill them soon enough, or they'll kill themselves through nuclear war.
