A friend of mine is trying to make a television programme about gender. She wants to show that the ways that boys and girls are raised shapes their gender.
The brick wall she is up against is that all the commissioning editors are convinced that the evidence is in on this question and we 'now know' that gender is biologically determined (then they mumble something about socio-biology etc etc).
She has to find some experts that say that gender is substantially determined by socialisation.
I thought that she ought to look at sociologists, and feminist ones, rather than psychologists.
Does anyone have any good references to academic papers, preferably recent, or better still, know some academics who are hot on this.
