• W2758629365 abstract "Assigned: Life with Gender Edited by Lisa Wade with Douglas Hartmann and Christopher Uggen Wade, Lisa (Editor) with Douglas Hartmann and Christopher Uggen (Series Editors). Assigned: Life with Gender (The Society Pages). New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 2017. 272 pp. $15.00 paper.Reviewed by William T. CockrellAssigned: Life With Gender is a collection of essays and opinion editorial pieces related to how we do not necessarily choose the gendered behaviors we feel compelled to perform. Edited by Lisa Wade, Douglas Hartmann, and Christopher Uggen, Assigned could be a powerful, initial exposure to the study of gender roles. The assortment of writings is separated into five different sections: ideas, performances, inequalities, institutions, and the future of gender. What starts as a solid, organized book becomes a scattered, jumble of short stories. As previously mentioned, this book would be excellent for an undergraduate Gender Roles class. Unfortunately, longtime researchers of the field are going to find little of new interest.Primary author and editor Lisa Wade opens the book with the Introduction. The writing in the introduction is superb. Wade effectively gets the common point across that men and women are more similar than we tend to believe. The one aspect of critique for the introduction follows throughout the totality of the book, issues with citation. All of the research discussed should be cited for academic reasons as well as giving first-hand readers access to classic publications.The first section of the book is classified as Ideas. The primary goal in this segment of Assigned is to educate the reader on numerous aspects of gender and sex that we are exposed to on a daily basis. In the first chapter, On Queering Parenting and Gender-Neutrality, we see the authors discussing how to approach raising a young child without the strict gendered descriptors of boy/girl. Referencing Dr. Fausto-Sterling in the second paragraph is an excellent way to establish credibility, but most of the student readers will not be aware of this important mention. Further, using terms such as heteronormativity without explicitly stating the meaning may also not be entirely beneficial for readers without a gender studies background.The strength of Assigned rests in the center of the collection. The section relating to gender performances accomplishes exposing readers to these highly complex topics with the assistance of actual research. Admittedly, the measurement of uptalk in Jeopardy episodes has a highly restrictive population, but it does present the student readers with quantitative measurements. To contrast the numerical assessments, the book presents an in-depth qualitative analysis of the ever-popular love triangle present in The Hunger Games series. This example humorously and effectively challenges the sexual double standard by encouraging female characters not to be defined by their romantic choices.A powerful experience of being educated on differential treatment is ever present in the Inequalities portion of the book. …" @default.
