Gender, Sex, and Technology! is a timely collection that delves into the intricate intersections of gender, sex, and technology. Through an interdisciplinary lens, the book explores how technology shapes and is shaped by cultural perceptions of gender and sex. By examining a range of past and present issues, the text highlights the complex relationships between humans and technology. Contributors employ feminist, decolonizing, and anti-racist methodologies to examine our everyday engagements with technology, encompassing mundane, surreal, playful, and devastating aspects.
The book incorporates original research and scholarship, grounded in real-world scenarios such as revenge pornography, gender bias in artificial intelligence, menstrual tracking, online dating, and the COVID-19 pandemic. These scenarios invite students to critically examine technological transformations and their impact on gendered lived experiences. Moreover, the book raises important questions about the unequal distribution of benefits and risks associated with technology within society.
Gender, Sex, and Technology! is a valuable resource for courses focused on gender and technology. It offers a Canadian perspective while maintaining a global connection, providing students with up-to-date and relevant content. The book's interdisciplinary approach encourages students to think critically about the complex relationships between gender, sex, and technology and to consider how these relationships are shaped and transformed by social and technological innovations.
