Program Description

Gender Relations Today By Graciela Abelin-Sas Rose MD

This presentation considers the conditions of women in the world today. It reflects on the changes that have taken place in the concepts of feminine and masculine in the western world in the last decades and its impact on the relationship between genders. It underlines the problem of using easy superficial categorizations about gender issues in our present society, which may lead to false conclusions.

What Women Want and What is Wanted by Women? By Arlene Kramer-Richards, Ed.D.

This presentation describes changes in psychoanalytic theory of female development, sexuality and desire. Contrasting ideas of equality feminism with ideas of difference feminism, it highlights complexity, contradiction and progress in formulating feminist agendas. Most
importantly, it describes a change in gender roles dictated by social and economic change in a community pushed to adapt by giving up its rigid male gender roles and the impact of this on female gender roles, female self -esteem and male self-image. It adds a psychoanalytic understanding of how development interacts with environment in the selection of which aspects of gender roles are more tightly held and which are more available for adaptive change.
