In this class, we will identify and study a broad range of health issues and experiences within the context of gender and sexuality. The course will focus both on the health care system and lived, lay experiences of health and wellbeing. Topics will include discussions on mental health, reproductive issues, caregiving, and survivorship, as well as the politics of health and gender, the role of health and care in activism, gender differences in health status, and the impact of race and socioeconomic status on health.
