Gender in a Transitional Era addresses a range of issues relevant in current gender and sexuality studies scholarship which span many disciplines. The contributors prioritize the critical thinking that continues to support the notion that we, as a society, still have a ways to go toward full gender equality in all spheres of life. This collection positions marginal voices at the center of complex gender issues in today's society. Broad thematic topic areas include parental identities, advice, and self-help; gender performances and role expectations in media; interacting within organizational and social spaces; and tensions and negotiations on politics, health, and feminisms. Though there is still much work to be done concerning an array of gender equality issues, scholars in this collection interrogate a transitional era of gender in which changes are evident, yet challenges persist.
Genderblindness in American Society: The Rhetoric of a System of Social Control of Women rhetorically analyzes discourses of the current genderblind system of social control that seeks to render gender as irrelevant in public life. As an ideology, genderblindness shapes women's experiences in the public sphere by working to limit our understandings of gender and to separate the continued marginalization of women from ideas of gender discrimination. Taking a critical rhetoric perspective, Lucy J. Miller examines the discourse of genderblindness in the contexts of the gender wage gap, abortion rights, rape culture, and tech culture.

This guide provides a sociology and urban studies connection to the real-life stories found in the two books, HEY CABBIE and HEY CABBIE II. Students will benefit from an up-close, near first-hand look into human social behavior and the functioning of human society as seen through the perceptive eyes of a seasoned cab driver. The stories are true, raw vignettes describing brief encounters with a wide variety of people and a fascinating glimpse of the city. There is a 30 year span between the two books portraying human behavior THEN and NOW. The author's sense of curiosity, empathy and attention to the details of people's lives will provide the student profound and distinct learnings in sociology and urban studies.
