This episode explores two basic terms used in the social sciences - sex and gender. Though these terms have many other definitions associated with them, my goal is to provide an overview of the specific definitions so that my audience can understand how they can be used to analyze gender in the American South. The definitions are by no means exhaustive, but they will give the framework needed for you to explore those concepts further on your own. Sex and gender (and human sexuality) are complicated ideas; this podcast episode can serve as an entryway to the study of those concepts.
