This Is Gendered

THIS IS GENDERED is a feminist online encyclopedia. Inspired by the claim “everything is political”, we claim that everything is gendered. The encyclopedia is an ongoing process to prove this claim. We aim to describe the gendered workings, histories and aspects of all the things that make up our world, from everyday objects to institutional biases. Some stories might seem trivial but they fit into a larger pattern. We hope this pattern becomes evident when you browse the encyclopedia. Whether you want to convince a colleague about hidden patterns of sexism at your workplace, start a conversation about feminism at the dinner table or ground arguments about the harm caused by the patriarchy in everyday stories and examples – this page is for you.
