Gender studies is an interdisciplinary field dedicated to the exploration of gender identity and gendered representation. It comprises several sub-fields including women studies, men studies, and queer studies. These sub-fields analyze diverse areas such as geography, political science, cinema, law, and literature from a gender and sexuality perspective. Gender studies also investigate the intersectionality of gender with race, ethnicity, location, and disability. In this context, the term "gender" typically refers to the social and cultural constructs of masculinity and femininity, rather than simply male or female biological characteristics. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of gender studies. It presents the complex subject of gender studies in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers in this field.
