AbstractGender Tapestry is a multi-stage interactive AI art project, challenging traditional gender classification systems. This project diverges from binary approaches by recognizing the individuality of the gender experience and expression. This paper draws parallels to the ways color perception differs amongst people and how gender is also experienced in different ways due to lived experiences. Gender Tapestry uses a multi-label classification system, with predictions extending across six gender categories, with a custom RGB color generated based on the outcomes. Participants receive binary images of their face in their personalized colors and styles, while their uploaded photos contribute to a live Generative Adversarial Network training process. This work was created in response to the very binary representations of gender in AI and the lack of representation for genders outside of the binary. The culmination is an evolving mosaic artwork, incorporating all users' custom colors, illustrating gender as a fluid construct. The mosaic gains in complexity as more images are added and more colors enter the mix, creating a community artwork on gender as a 3D color spectrum. This work contributes to the discourse on diversity and inclusion in AI, emphasizing the fluidity of gender and fostering unconventional artistic representations.

Walaupun berbagai usaha telah dilakukan, dan telah pula terjadi perubahan terhadap peran serta perempuan di segala bidang kehidupan, namun tidak dapat dipungkiri kesetaraan gender yang diharapkan terjadi belum sepenuhya tercapai. Kesenjangan gender tampak masih terjadi di berbagai bidang pembangunan, misalnya di bidang pendidikan, kesehatan, politik, dan di bidang pemerintahan. Gender diartikan sebagai konstruksi sosial tentang bagaimana menjadi laki-laki dan perempuan sebagaimana dituntut oleh masyarakat. Gender berkaitan dengan pembagian peran, kedudukan dan tugas antara laki-laki dan perempuan yang ditetapkan oleh masyarakat berdasarkan sifat yang dianggap pantas bagi laki-laki dan perempuan menurut norma, adat, kepercayaan dan kebiasaan masyarakat. Ketika konstruksi sosial itu dihayati sebagai sesuatu yang tidak boleh diubah karena dianggap kodrati dan alamiah, menjadilah itu ideologi gender. Berdasakan ideologi gender yang dianut, masyarakat kemudian menciptakan pembagian peran antara laki-laki dan perempuan, dimana laki-laki diposisikan pada peran produktif, publik, sedangkan perempuan diposisikan pada peran reproduktif, domestik. Perbedaan-perbedaan antara laki-laki dan perempuan terutama perbedaan gender (gender differences) ternyata menimbulkan ketidakadilan gender yang umumnya lebih banyak menimpa kaum perempaun. Bentuk-bentuk manifestasi ketidakadilan akibat diskriminasi gender itu meliputi: marginalisasi, subordinasi, stereotype, kekerasan, dan beban kerja. Munculnya berbagai bentuk kesenjangan gender antara laki-laki dan perempuan, maka dipandang perlu ditempuh suatu strategi untuk mengurangi atau bahkan menghapus kesenjangan tersebut sehingga tercapai kondisi yang adil dan setara gender (KKG). Intervensi pemerintah dalam mempercepat tercapainya kesetaraan dan keadilan gender (KKG) adalah dengan membentuk suatu kebijakan yang disebut Strategi Pengarusutamaan Gender disingkat menjadi PUG (Gender Mainstreaming). Pengarusutamaan Gender (PUG) adalah suatu strategi untuk mencapai keadilan dan kesetaraan ...

Female genital mutilation ([FGM] cutting or surgery) is an issue that epitomizes the changing nature of incorporating gender in teaching international relations. Put simply, by increasing our attention to issues of concerns to women, like FGM, in international relations classrooms & texts, we begin to recognize the importance of these to the study of international relations (IR). Yet without paying attention to how these issues reflect on the nature & directions of international relations, we run the risk of sensationalizing or trivializing complicated issues like FGM & limiting our understanding of the interplay between gender, race, class, ability, & international relations. This article explores several different approaches used to incorporate gender in international relations teaching, including some analysis of texts, including: "see no evil, hear no evil & teach no evil," "add women & stir," "multiple paradigms," & creating gendered IR. It suggests that until we use an integrative & transformative approach to gender in our teaching, we will continue to marginalize gender concerns. In the final section, the article discusses the challenges of resources & cultural narrowness & challenges to pedagogy when incorporating gender in international relations teaching. 1 Table, 38 References.

Degenderung - "Entgeschlechtlichung" - gehört in ein Kontinuum von Ansätzen, bei denen Feministinnen Gender nutzen, um Forschungsfragen zu formulieren und politische Aktionen auf den Begriff zu bringen. Richtet man den Blick auf die Menschen und die soziale Interaktion in den modernen Industriegesellschaften, tritt Gender zurück. Richtet man jedoch den Blick auf die sozial strukturierenden und organisierenden Praktiken, tritt Gender wieder hervor. Ein tiefgreifender Wandel setzt dabei voraus, dass Degendering sowohl auf der strukturellen und organisatorischen als auch auf der persönlichen und interaktiven Ebene stattfindet. Die Autorin stellt einige Thesen aus ihrem neuen Buch "Breaking the Bowls: Degendering and Feminist Change" vor und thematisiert folgende Ziele von Degendering im Rahmen feministischer Theorie: (1) Beseitigung von Geschlechterdifferenzierungen auf dem Arbeitsmarkt und in der Familie; (2) Streben nach Vielfalt innerhalb der Geschlechterregime; (3) multidimensionale Politik in Koalitionen mit Frauen und Männern; (4) Entwicklung von Vorstellungen für eine Gesellschaftsordnung ohne Einteilungen nach Geschlecht.
