ESSAY

The assigned readings in Weeks 10 from the New Latino Studies Reader critically explore issues of gender and sexuality among Latino populations.They do so both historically (Ramon Gutierrez’s “The History of Latino Sexuality”) and contemporarily (Robert Smith’s “Gender Strategies, Settlement, and Transnational Life in the First Generation” and Lorena Garcia’s “She’s Old School Like That: Mother and Daughter Sex Talks”).All three articles in this section offer a sophisticated analysis of the way that manhood and womanhood is given cultural meaning among different generations of Latinos and Latinas in the United States.

Drawing upon Ramon Gutierrez’s historical analysis of “male honor” and “female shame,” discuss how these gender ideals have contemporary meaning in the lives of the Mexican and Puerto Rican subjects that Robert Smith and Lorena Garcia interviewed in their essays.How do cultural constructions of “male honor” and “female shame” impact on the lives of the first-generation Mexican immigrant couples that Smith interviewed and the second-generation Mexican and Puerto Rican young women that Garcia interviewed?Your essay must make use of all three of these essays in addressing the essay question posed.Make sure you begin with the Gutierrez essay and then discuss the Smith and Garcia articles.
