This first analysis will be used again for Assessment 6.

Deliverable
Write an essay in which you complete all of the following:
PART 1
Examine the toys and clothing you had as a child.
Describe the clothing and toys from your childhood and identify which were gender-specific.
PART 2
Examine your experience with gender socialization.
Describe the message your toys and clothing sent you about gender.
Analyze how gender-specific messages that arise from childhood clothing and toys reflect larger societal expectations.
Reflect on the impact these messages had on you. Describe how you feel about your experience with gender socialization.
PART 3
Analyze and then include outside sources.
Your analysis should also include information from two additional outside resources regarding gender socialization—one from a popular source and one from a scholarly source. A critical component of this assessment involves evaluating these outside resources.
Summarize your outside articles (one scholarly and one popular) and explain how they helped you better understand your experience with gender socialization.
Explain the validity (quality) of each source and how helpful each was. What conclusions can you draw about the difference in these types of sources (popular versus scholarly)?
