When Gender Does (and Doesn’t) Matter in Intersectional Contexts

    This symposium tackles timely research questions on the subject of gender intersectionality, shedding light on the unexpected instances in which gender does (and does not) matter in intersectional contexts. Specifically, the current set of papers explores (1) the primacy of gender in social cognition among LGBTQ individuals; (2) whether gender normative stereotypes are equally attributed to men and women of different identities, including race and sexual orientation; (3) whether the “motherhood penalty” afflicts different racial groups equally; and (4) how age moderates gender attitudes, and vice-versa. We believe that this collection of papers helps push the gender research envelope into more robust, theoretical territory. In so doing, we hope to inspire a new era of gender research and theory, as well as intersectionality research more broadly.
