Basically, the main purpose of this class is to explore the relationship between gender and technology. A majority of the material emphasizes how females are affected and the changing roles of both sexes in today's society. We focused on areas such as the Internet, reproductive technologies, the ways in which technology is gendered, and how gender influences technology. Because of the recent inventions, most of us think of technology as machines. Popular technologies include computers, television, cellular phones, and other mechanical devices that we think make our lives easier.
Technology includes the light bulb, medicines, the use of fire, the invention of plastic, etc.
However, with this comes certain gender roles and expectations. Sure, that's what I thought. But, it's possible for males to become pregnant through a surgical process, thanks to our latest medical technology. Then, in vitro fertilization techniques are used to produce the embryo, which is then implanted into the abdominal cavity. Once implantation is complete, the embryo secretes its own hormones for growth and development.
