Acknowledgments

This volume was borne out of the collaboration that supported the 2015 Southern Sociological Society Annual Meeting, Stalled Revolutions? Gender Inequality in the 21st Century, with David Maume as president. Shannon Davis and Sarah Winslow cochaired the Program Committee tasked with shaping the intellectual contributions of the annual meeting. Many of the chapters in this volume are revised versions of papers presented at that conference. Shannon Davis was supported by a George Mason University Faculty Study Leave to facilitate the completion of the volume.

We are indebted to our colleagues in the Southern Sociological Society, especially the 2015 Program Committee, as well as those at George Mason University, Clemson University, and the University of Cincinnati for their support in the completion of this volume. Reviewers and editors of University of California Press provided valuable direction and feedback. In addition to our authors, we are grateful for the editorial contributions of M.C. Elias and Sarah Wagner (George Mason University) and the indexing work of PJ Heim of QMFindexing, made possible by financial support from the Charles Phelps Taft Research Center at the University of Cincinnati. We are also deeply appreciative of the support of our families throughout the organization and implementation of the 2015 Southern Sociological Society meeting and our subsequent work on this volume: Frank, Alexandra, and Miles (Shannon), Stephanie, Reeve, and Laken (Sarah), and Debbie (David).

Gender as an Institution

Shannon N. Davis, Sarah Winslow, and David J. Maume

Marcia, age 18 , is a senior in high school, while her brother Mark, age 16 , is a junior. They live with their biological parents. Both are planning to attend college; Marcia has been accepted at the best liberal arts college in her state. She does well in school, but is so overscheduled that she is tired frequently, leading her parents to make comments about how she needs to worry more about how she looks each day. Mark does well in school, too, but his parents have been pushing him to be more involved in sports so he can look more well-rounded in his college applications. Being president of the Chess Club is important, they say, but he needs to show that he has athletic skills as well. Both Marcia and Mark have many friends, though neither has a steady dating partner. One of the key points of contention in their household is that they have the same curfew, even though Marcia is only a few months away from living on her own.
