WHERE: 715 Broadway, Gallatin Building, 5th floor Lounge - room 522

The hysterical woman, the strong and silent man - how do these stereotypes affect our self-destructive behaviors? History, hormones, cultural norms, and sexual desires all have their own affect on how we see ourselves, and how the world sees us.

When sanity has long been defined by staying inside our gender norms, how do we define our own version of sane?

In this workshop, we will look at how sanity has been defined for genders throughout history, how it's being marketed to us today, and how we can distinguish the roles we've been given.

Facilitated by Sabrina Chapadjiev, performance artist and editor of "Live Through This: On Creativity and Self-Destruction".

Co-sponsored by NOW-NYU and The Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality.
