PAMELA'S PLACE
Gender and Society - Tập 10 Số 5 - Trang 505-526 - 1996
Debra Gimlin
This article draws from field research in a Long Island beauty salon to explore the ways that female beauty work constructs gendered, classed identities. Stylists use their attachment to beauty culture to nullify status differences between themselves and their clientele, and to imagine themselves their customers' friends and social equals. However, the emotional ties stylists profess force them to... hiện toàn bộ
Doing, Undoing, or Redoing Gender?
Gender and Society - Tập 24 Số 1 - Trang 31-55 - 2010
Catherine Connell
Drawing from the perspectives of transgender individuals, this article offers an empirical investigation of recent critiques of West and Zimmerman’s “doing gender” theory. This analysis uses 19 in-depth interviews with transpeople about their negotiation and management of gendered interactions at work to explore how their experiences potentially contribute to the doing, undoing, or redoing of gend... hiện toàn bộ
“I’ll Be Like Water”
Gender and Society - Tập 27 Số 6 - Trang 777-798 - 2013
Gowri Vijayakumar
This article examines the ways in which ideologies of aspiration, inclusion, and women’s empowerment associated with India’s globalizing knowledge economy are re-framed by young women workers in a small-town business-process outsourcing (BPO) center two hours outside of Bangalore. Drawing on forty in-depth interviews, I show that, in contrast to their managers’ expectations of individualized work ... hiện toàn bộ
Purple-Collar Labor
Gender and Society - Tập 29 Số 2 - Trang 169-194 - 2015
Emmanuel David
This article examines new patterns of workplace inequality that emerge as transgender people are incorporated into the global labor market. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 41 transgender call center employees in the Philippines, I develop the concept “purple-collar labor” to describe how transgender workers—specifically trans women—are clustered, dispersed, and segregated in the workplace and ... hiện toàn bộ
REPLACING HOUSEWORK IN THE SERVICE ECONOMY
Gender and Society - Tập 12 Số 2 - Trang 219-231 - 1998
Philip N. Cohen
Using data from the 1993 Consumer Expenditure Survey to examine housework-related service consumption, the author finds that spending on housekeeping services and meals out—which helps relieve women's housework burden—is affected by dynamics within marriages as well as by family class and race-ethnicity. Other things equal, families in which women have more relative power, as reflected in their in... hiện toàn bộ
“JUST EVERY MOTHER'S ANGEL”
Gender and Society - Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 408-431 - 1995
Karen A. Joe, Meda Chesney‐Lind
Few studies of gangs have explored both ethnic and gender variations in the experience of gang membership. Based on an analysis of interviews with 48 youth from a number of ethnic gangs in Hawaii, this article explores boys' and girls' reasons for joining gangs. The results suggest that although gang members face common problems, they deal with these in ways that are uniquely informed by gender an... hiện toàn bộ
Hierarchies of Categorical Disadvantage: Economic Insecurity at the Intersection of Disability, Gender, and Race
Gender and Society - Tập 33 Số 1 - Trang 64-93 - 2019
Michelle Maroto, David Pettinicchio, Andrew C. Patterson
Intersectional feminist scholars emphasize how overlapping systems of oppression structure gender inequality, but in focusing on the gendered, classed, and racialized bases of stratification, many often overlook disability as an important social category in determining economic outcomes. This is a significant omission given that disability severely limits opportunities and contributes to cumulativ... hiện toàn bộ
HIERARCHIES, JOBS, BODIES:
Gender and Society - Tập 4 Số 2 - Trang 139-158 - 1990
Joan Acker
In spite of feminist recognition that hierarchical organizations are an important location of male dominance, most feminists writing about organizations assume that organizational structure is gender neutral. This article argues that organizational structure is not gender neutral; on the contrary, assumptions about gender underlie the documents and contracts used to construct organizations and to ... hiện toàn bộ
Balancing Research and Service in Academia: Gender, Race, and Laboratory Tasks
Gender and Society - Tập 34 Số 1 - Trang 131-152 - 2020
Candace Miller, Josipa Roksa
Our study highlights specific ways in which race and gender create inequality in the workplace. Using in-depth interviews with 67 biology PhD students, we show how engagement with research and service varies by both gender and race. By considering the intersection between gender and race, we find not only that women biology graduate students do more service than men, but also that racial and ethni... hiện toàn bộ
TENUOUS RELATIONSHIPS
Gender and Society - Tập 13 Số 6 - Trang 758-780 - 1999
Lynet Uttal, Mary C. Tuominen
The relatively recent shift of family caregiving to the public market of service work raises questions about how to theorize paid caregiving. This article examines how to conceptualize child rearing when it is transferred to a paid worker. The gendered character of commodified caregiving is complicated by structural locations of race and class that define the employer-employee relationship. Previo... hiện toàn bộ
