At this point, we have discussed that gender and leadership are social constructs determined by culture, and that sometimes there are conflicts between gender roles and leadership roles. In lecture, I have shared that the woman’s gender role is to be communal (supportive, nurturing, caring, sensitive, compassionate) and the man’s gender role is to be agentic (dedicated, demanding, aggressive, competitive), and leadership is often assumed to require agentic traits (though at this point in the class, you know that is not always effective leadership for many situations).
This week, I want you to think about what challenging gender roles looks like in a (hopefully) fun way.
Arguably one of the most famous gender role challengers right now is Bad Bunny.
I want you to:
1. Find a link of Bad Bunny challenging gender roles and send it to me. It can be one of his music videos, an article, etc.
2. Tell me (in English) why you chose that link. How is he challenging the gender roles?
3. How is Bad Bunny perceived? Find both a positive and a negative reaction to his gender fluidity. Link both reactions and discuss them.
4. Drawing on Intersectionality Theory, how do you think other parts of Bad Bunnyâs identity (Puerto Rican, male-presenting, Spanish speaking, etc.) influence these perceptions?
At this point, we have discussed that gender and leadership are social construct
