This book presents the results of the studies carried out by the students and graduates of the Gender Program of the European University at St. Petersburg. The authors refer to the analysis of gender transformations in the private sphere in the modern Russian society. Gender refers to as a hierarchical configuration of correlative practices and patterns of masculinity and femininity. What is the importance of sexual experience and common-law marriage in modern relations between men and women? Are housewives satisfied with their role as the keeper of the family? Why do Russian women prefer to work rather than be a housewife? The authors stick to the structural-constructivist interpretation of gender approach. (0.385 kg.)
