Social constructions vs. essentialism is a really big idea in modern feminism. A lot of sexist ideas are supported by saying, "It's natural for women (or men) to be ____." So let's get together and discuss what we think is inherent about the sexes, and how these concepts are used to deflate sexism!

P.S. - If you've never heard of social constructions or essentialism, you should definitely come out and find out what it's all about!
