In modern pediatric practice, gender matters. From the
pink-and-blue striped receiving blankets used to swaddle newborns,
to the development of sex-specific nutrition plans based on
societal expectations of the stature of children, a gendered
culture permeates pediatrics and children’s health throughout the
twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. This book provides a
look at how gender has served as one of the frameworks for
pediatric care in the U.S. since the specialty’s inception. Pink
and Blue deploys gender—often in concert with class and race—as
the central critical lens for understanding the function of
pediatrics as a cultural and social project in modern U.S. history.
