I started teaching an intro Gender & Sexuality course this semester. It's given me an opportunity to revisit some texts and discover new ones, so I'm just keeping a record of it here. I suppose I could do that in Zotero, Notion, or some other private place, but since I spend a lot of time scanning other peoples' syllabi, I thought I'd return the favor. The headings align with the topics I'm teaching.
