I need support with this Social Science question so I can learn better.
1- Your nephew is in 7th grade (12 years old). He thinks it’s strange to take a class called “women’s studies,” and he wants to know what you have been learning.
How would you explain the differences between sex, gender, and sexuality to him? Explain your reasoning and give specific examples.
2-How do privilege and oppression impact our society today? What are the positive and negative impacts? How can the negatives by minimized?
Explain your reasoning and give specific examples.
3-Your distant Aunt Jackie tells you one day over dinner, “You know, feminists are just a bunch of women that want to grab all of the power. In fact, more women than men graduate from college these days, so women are already doing better than men in this world. The world doesn’t need feminism.”
How would you respond? How would you define feminism for Aunt Jackie? Explain your reasoning and give specific examples.
4-One of the frequent critiques of the first wave of feminism is that it was not inclusive of women of color, especially Black women. Do you agree or disagree with this critique (or both agree and disagree)? Explain your reasoning and give specific examples.
5-Abortion is an extremely polarizing issue: many people are very strongly for or against allowing access to abortion. However, few people are truly educated about the facts of abortion access (like those we learned about in this class).
You have been hired to teach Introduction to Women’s Studies at El Camino College. What is the goal of your lesson about abortion? What facts will you share with your students about abortion without starting a heated class debate?
Explain your reasoning and give specific examples.
