‘I Don't Want To be a Playa No More': An Exploration of the Denigrating Effects of ‘Player' as a Stereotype Against African American Polyamorous Men

Author(s): Leonard Justin Clardy / Language(s): English Issue: 11 (25)/2018

This paper shows how amatonormativity and its attendant social pressures converge at the intersections of race, gender, romantic relationality, and sexuality to generate peculiar challenges to polyamorous African American men in American society. Contrary to the view maintained in the “slut-vs-stud” phenomenon, I maintain that the label ‘player’ when applied to polyamorous African American men functions as a pernicious stereotype and has denigrating effects. Specifically, I argue that stereotyping polyamorous African American men as players estranges them from themselves and it constrains their agency by preemptively foreclosing the set of possibilities of what one’s sexual or romantic relational identities can be.

Conclusions. Conclusions. The analysis of gender-age stratification in Poturi's wedding ceremony made the following conclusions. Relaying the device of family life through the prism of wedding ceremony. Representatives of all four gender subcultures participated in the wedding ceremony of Potour (and Ukraine in general): children, youth, women and men. A characteristic feature of gender stratification in the Poturia wedding ceremony is a clear division of responsibilities and roles between the male and female subcultures: men were responsible for the administrative and ceremonial moments (marriage, redemption of the bride, reading of the crown, meeting and drinking of the Cossacks) escort wedding). Women were assigned the role of organizing and supporting the business and ritual part of the wedding (preparing brides for marriage, baking a cow, cooking for the festive table, song accompaniment). The example of Poturyi's wedding ceremony traces the phenomenon of indirect education of children through wedding events, which is also characteristic of the wedding tradition of Ukraine as a whole. Compared to adults, the participation of children was not very active: the girls dressed in the bride, the boys untied the hair of the sister-bride and sat in the newlyweds' place during her ransom. However, due to the involvement of children in such adult ceremonies as weddings, representatives of the children's subculture formed an idea of family life and the rules of social order. The system of distribution of the main and minor characters.

Індикатори ґендерних стереотипів в мистецькій кар’єрі (аналітичний дискурс)

Author(s): Tetiana Andrusyshyn / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 38/2020

Purpose of the article. Gender stereotypes have some inconsistency with the realities of today, and therefore become a problem for both society and the individual, as they raise pressing issues of gender equality. Research into indicators of gender stereotypes is needed to address these issues. That is why, in the context of our study, the purpose is to identify indicators of gender stereotypes in building an artistic career. The methodology of the study is conditioned by a gender approach aimed at overcoming gender stereotypes in society, equality, partnership, and interaction of both sexes. The study involves the use of common scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, and generalization. The method of comparative analysis and analogy makes it possible to thoroughly comprehend gender stereotypes and their influence on the construction of careers in the artistic field of work. The scientific novelty is to identify indicators of gender stereotypes that are related specifically to social stereotypes of role-sharing in building an artistic career. The conclusions summarize the analysis and definition of indicators of gender stereotypes in the construction of artistic careers. It is understood that gender stereotypes are shaped by culture as generalized beliefs, and gender role means a set of expected patterns (norms) of behavior for men and women. It is proved that the division of labor continues to reproduce gender-role stereotypes. The problems of social stereotypes, self-identification, and free-thinking that women face in realizing themselves in the art are analyzed. It has been found that gender-based views on gender differences in employment are related to social stereotypes of role-sharing. Such stereotypes do not allow for an objective assessment of women's opportunities and competencies in employment or career development in the arts, and therefore the offer of employment for men and women differs significantly in terms of quantity and quality.

Author(s): Sunčica Šido / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2014

The work of Ingeborg Bachmann, as well as numerous studies that observe it through the prism of gender theories, gave an important contribution to the representation of women’s identity and to the creation of theoretical frame for the construction of women’s political subject.

The work of Ingeborg Bachmann underlines the neccessity of feminist reconstruction of history, finding previously hidden elements of women’s culture, at the same time takes part in developing alternative approaches to language, literature and culture at large.

Author(s): Vera Gudac-Dodić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 3/2018

Interdisciplinarity, immanent to women studies, also marked the ways of acquiring knowledge of past events from the women’s perspective. The pronounced interdisciplinarity in the approach and research of that topic has conditioned the combining of methods of various academic disciplines and their intertwining.

ЉУБИЧИЦЕ, И ЈА БИХ ТЕ БРАЛА...”. „ЖЕНСКО ДРУШТВО” У ДНЕВНИКУ ТОШКА ВЛАХОВИЋА

Author(s): Božica B. Mladenović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 68/2019

Toško Vlahović was a student of philosophy at the universities of St. Petersburg and Jena, the Chetnik duke and the commander of the detachment of Krajina in the Serbian resistance movement and Toplica uprising. In his war diary, he recorded impressions of the female part of the population of the Kingdom of Serbia during the occupation in the Great War (1915–1918). For members of the tenderer sex, girls and women, Vojvoda Vlahović used the term “ženske” which was then used in everyday life. The occupied Serbian society, which was to a certain extent divided, is presented realistically. Women and girls provided help and support to participants in the resistance movement and rebels, but there was also a small number of “chicks” who collaborated with the Bulgarian occupying authorities. This cooperation was reflected in the informative activities, i.e. reporting of compatriots for various “violations”. Vlahović witnessed the massive suffering of the civilian population during the criminal expedition of the troops of the Central Powers, which followed the breakup of the uprising movement. In the diary he recorded the pain and suffering of girls, women (younger, middleaged, and elderly). Women were victims of abuse of Bulgarian soldiers and komitadji. But, sometimes, members of the Serbian resistance movement were also abusers. Women were raped, beaten, mistreated, sometimes killed. Toško Vlahović’s notebooks were written in difficult times, when the imperative was to survive. Life turned into a continuous and merciless struggle for the preservation of bare existence. In this fight, at times, the “goals”, “patriotism”, “the fatherland” were forgotten... This makes this historical source valuable. The diary is accurate, realistic, picturesque. The author, using the richness of the examples of the “deviations from the rule”, illustratively presents the dark and bright side of the life of the “Women’s Society” during the occupation.

ЭКОНОМИКО-ДЕМОГРАФИЧЕСКОЕ РАЗВИТИЕ МАЛЫХ ГОРОДОВ ЦЕНТРАЛЬНОЙ РОССИИ: ВАЖЕН ЛИ ГЕНДЕРНЫЙ АСПЕКТ?

Author(s): Irina Evgenevna Kalabikhina,Denis Nikolaevich Mokrensky,Matvej Sergeevich Oborin,Marina Yurevna Sheresheva / Language(s): Russian Issue: 2/2018

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the current situation in the economic and demographic development of the population and households in the central Russia small cities, with special attention to the gender aspect. The method of statistical analysis was applied here. Additionally municipal statistics and population census data was made use of. The results show that small cities of central Russia over the past decades have undergone the processes of population decline, its (population) concentration in regional centers, its aging, and the growth in the share of single-person households. All these processes are accompanied by feminization of the population. At the same time, women represent a large share of workers and get lower incomes than men (the gender gap is an equal or higher than the Russian average). The described situation is not only deplorable for the present and future status of women, but it also is a significant challenge for the future sustainable development of small cities, because investigated processes show a tendency to intensify. One of the important practical conclusions is the statement that even a high level of social support (which exists in a number of small cities) does not guarantee the mitigation of challenges. It is necessary to develop the programs aimed to boost networking and inter-municipal cooperation for pooling resources.
