suggestions of things to tie in to a gender socialization lecture

Jan 24, 2008 18:21

Hey all. I've gotten tapped to do a last minute lecture in a Sociology of Gender course on socialization. I'm going to do a bit of bare bones stuff - what is socialization, how it occurs, etc., but I also want to add in a bit of my trans experience of re-socialization that takes place when one lives as their chosen gender. Does anyone have any suggestions of sources, readings, ideas, etc. of things to talk about? The class is very loosely organized, so I'm thinking a lot of discussion is going to happen. This is really the first time opening up and identifying as trans in front of a class, so I don't want to look foolish.
Thanks in advance for any input you can add!
Jay
