Directions:
For this paper, you will need to pick an area of inequality that women, or gender/sexuality
minorities, face in society today. For example, the gender pay gap, misrepresentation in the
media, double standards in family life, linguistic sexism, the second shift, etc. If you need any
help picking a topic, please feel free to email me.
Your goals are to conduct research to:
1. Examine why women, or gender/sexuality minorities, face this type of inequality today.
2. Provide REAL resources for those who are facing this inequality.
This is not a personal experience or opinion paper. This is a research paper and all sources
must be cited. All information/facts should from your sources but need to be stated in your own
words. Only use a small amount of quoting. You can also use headings/titles to help organize
your paper. Below are the requirements for each section of your paper:
Part 1-Substantiate why your topic perpetuates inequality today.
1. Introduction/Thesis statement: Write a short introduction to your topic (1-2 paragraphs).
Be sure to end your intro with a thesis statement. An example of a thesis statement is the
following. “_____ is a challenge for women in the U.S. because of X, Y, and Z.” When you
mention the reasons (X, Y, Z) I will expect to see them clearly discussed in section 2. (2.5
points)
2. Body/Why this ‘thing’ perpetuates inequality. (7.5 points, at least 2 full pages written in
essay form, use sub-headings to help navigate the essay if needed): Explain what research
says about your topic. How/why does your topic cause inequality or challenges for women
or gender/sexuality minorities? You must incorporate information from our OER textbook
somewhere in this section. You must incorporate information from at least three other
sources (outside your textbook) in this section. All sources must be cited.
3. Theory (7.5 points, at least 1 full page written in essay form, use sub-headings to help
navigate the essay):
Thoroughly explain one theory from the class textbook chapter on theory.
Apply that one theory concretely to the topic you have chosen. Explain how your theory
would analyze your topic.
Do not use personal examples, this is a research paper.
Part 2-Provide REAL resources for those facing this inequality.
