Gender touches every sphere of our life–personal relations, social formations, psychology, culture, family, education, politics, law, sports, even science. In our everyday life we see many struggles for equality and dignity. Gender is quite central to these struggles. In recent years, there have also been many government initiatives and laws aimed at creating gender equality in our society. As a result, prevailing notions of being men and women are challenged. However young people have limited spaces to discuss and deal with these changes and the resulting confusions and anxieties about masculinity, femininity, romance, marriage, in short about gender roles. This UGC mandated course on gender sensitization, we hope, will create the space for this much needed discussion.
