Info tab content
What does RuPaul's Drag Race teach us about our everyday gendered performances? How does The Bachelor shed light on contemporary courtship rituals? Reality television shows may seem like frivolous fun (and they are!), but they are also illuminating cultural artifacts that reflect contemporary American norms and values. In this course, we will analyze these forms of entertainment through a social scientific lens, investigating what they reveal about our collective understandings of sex, gender, and sexuality.
