Gender and Tourism Sustainability
This book examines the relationship between gender and sustainability in tourism.Whilst an extensive body of work exists in the areas of gender and sustainability, these two fields of knowledge are seldom combined to examine tourism phenomena. When we look at the evolution of tourism, we see that sustainability has become an essential element in educational programmes, policy making and strategic considerations for organisations and destinations.Whilst the beginnings of tourism sustainability were challenging, presently, its relevance is seldom questioned.However, this situation is not the case with gender research.Although gender theorising and research have existed for over a century, and a rich legacy of knowledge exists on this topic, meaningful and respectful engagement with this line of scholarship is thus far peripheral in tourism studies.The aim of this book is to reflect on and rethink the intersection of gender and tourism sustainability through the lens of gender theory and feminist epistemology to stay with the trouble and devise pathways for sustainability gender knowledge. This book will be of great interest to students, researchers, and academics in tourism, gender and sustainability, as well as tourism management.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Sustainable Tourism.

Gender and Australian Celebrity Culture
This intellectually vibrant volume is the first collection to deal with Australian celebrity in ways that account for both cultural and gendered specificities, demonstrating how gendered ways of imagining Australia are reinforced and contested in celebrity representations and self-presentations.Gender and Australian Celebrity Culture engages with celebrities across a diverse range of fields – actors, journalists, athletes, comedians, writers, and television personalities – and in doing so critically reflects upon different forms of Australian fame and the media platforms and practices that sustain them.Authors in this volume engage directly with pertinent issues relating to gender and sexuality, including celebrity feminism and the generative capacity of feminist rage; normative femininity and its instability; hegemonic masculinities; and queerness and its (in)visibility.Contributors also intervene in a number of ongoing debates in media and cultural studies more broadly, including those around the politics and affordances of digital media; whiteness and Australia’s colonial histories; celebrity labour; and methodologies for celebrity studies.This timely collection urges scholars of celebrity to attend further both to the gendered nature of celebrity culture and to local conditions of production and consumption.This book will be of key interest to researchers and graduate students in cultural studies, television and film studies, digital media studies, critical race and whiteness studies, gender and sexuality studies, and literary studies.

What gender does the ugly gender have?
The concept of an "ugly gender" does not exist. Gender is a social construct that is not inherently tied to physical appearance or attractiveness. It is important to recognize that beauty standards are subjective and should not be used to define or categorize gender.
-
Doesn't the gender thing support gender roles?
The concept of gender is separate from the idea of gender roles. Gender refers to the social and cultural expectations and norms associated with being male, female, or non-binary, while gender roles are the specific behaviors and activities that society expects from individuals based on their gender. While the concept of gender can influence and perpetuate gender roles, it also allows for the recognition and acceptance of diverse gender identities and expressions beyond traditional roles. By understanding and challenging the construct of gender, we can work towards breaking down restrictive gender roles and promoting equality and inclusivity for all individuals.

How can Wokeness, gender equality, anti-racism, and cancel culture be reconciled?
Wokeness, gender equality, anti-racism, and cancel culture can be reconciled by promoting open and respectful dialogue, understanding different perspectives, and seeking common ground. It is important to acknowledge and address systemic inequalities and discrimination, while also fostering an environment where diverse viewpoints are valued and considered. This can be achieved through education, empathy, and a commitment to creating inclusive spaces where all voices are heard and respected. It is also important to recognize that cancel culture can sometimes be counterproductive and that forgiveness and growth should be encouraged.

What does gender and gender identity mean to you?
Gender and gender identity to me are about how individuals perceive and express themselves in relation to societal expectations and norms associated with being male, female, or non-binary. It is a deeply personal and complex aspect of one's identity that can influence how they navigate the world, interact with others, and understand themselves. I believe that everyone should have the freedom to define and express their gender in a way that feels authentic and true to who they are.

Gender: A World History
Gender exists in almost every society as a way of organizing its people.Gender is used to assign certain responsibilities, obligations, and privileges to some, and to deny them to others.In Gender: A World History, Susan Kingsley Kent tells the story of this seemingly simple but in fact quite complex concept.With historical perspective she critically examines our everyday understandings of women and men, masculinity and femininity, and sexual difference in general.Central to this account is the conviction that gender is neither natural nor innocent.What passes for masculinity and femininity in one society might not do so in another.Even the passing of time can change what gender looks like in a particular culture.Thinking about the history of gender can also shed light on other types of relations, such as those between a government and its people, between different social classes, and between a colony and its colonizer.Ranging from prehistory to the present, this book presents a chronological picture of gender across the globe.From Hatshepsut and the rise of patriarchy in the ancient world, to the Bushido code of the samurai in wartime, to Susan B.Anthony and the women's rights movement in the United States, to the gay and trans rights movements of today, the force of gender in world history cannot be denied.

Oneness Pentecostalism : Race, Gender, and Culture
This volume traces the history of Oneness Pentecostalism in North America.It maps the major ideas, arguments, periodization, and historical figures; corrects long-standing misinterpretations; and draws attention to how race and gender impacted the growth and trajectories of this movement.Oneness Pentecostalism emerged in the aftermath of the Azusa Street Revival (1906–9), baptizing its members in the name of Jesus Christ rather than the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and splintering from trinitarian Pentecostals.With its rapid growth throughout the twentieth century, especially among ethnic minorities, Oneness Pentecostalism assumed a diversity of theological, ethnic, and cultural expressions.This book reckons with the multiculturalism of the movement over the course of the twentieth century.While common interpretations tend to emphasize the restorationist impulse of Oneness Pentecostalism, leading to notions of a static, unchanging movement, the contributors to this work demonstrate that the movement is much more fluid and that the interpretation of its history and theology should be grounded in the variegated North American contexts in which Oneness Pentecostalism has taken root and dynamically developed. Groundbreaking and interdisciplinary, this volume presents diverse perspectives on a significant religious movement whose modern origins are embedded within the larger Pentecostal story.It will be welcomed by religious studies scholars and by practitioners of Oneness Pentecostalism. In addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume are Daniel Chiquete, Dara Coleby Delgado, Patricia Fortuny-Loret de Mola, Manuel Gaxiola, David A.Reed, Rosa Sailes, and Daniel Segraves.

Are there certain gender-specific expectations placed on women and girls in your culture?
Yes, in my culture, there are certain gender-specific expectations placed on women and girls. Women are often expected to prioritize their family and household responsibilities over their own personal or professional goals. Girls are encouraged to be nurturing, gentle, and obedient, while boys are expected to be strong, assertive, and independent. These expectations can limit the opportunities available to women and girls and reinforce traditional gender roles.
