Op elke schoolspeelplaats kan je volgende vaststelling doen: meisjes spelen meestal met meisjes, jongens meestal met jongens. Hoe komt dat en wat denken de kinderen er zelf van? Vanuit die vaststelling vertrekt de auteur om het gedrag van jongens en meisjes in de klas en op de speelplaats te onderzoeken. Ze laat zien hoe kinderen en jongeren op school geconfronteerd worden met opvattingen over sekserollen en hoe zij deze zelf vorm geven.

You see it in every schoolyard: the girls play only with girls, the boys play only with boys. Why? And what do the kids think about this? Breaking with familiar conventions for thinking about children and gender, Gender Play develops fresh insights into the everyday social worlds of kids in elementary schools in the United States. Barrie Thorne draws on her daily observations in the classroom and in the playground to show how children construct and experience gender in school. With rich detail, she looks at the "play of gender" in the organization of groups of kids and activities--activities such as chase-and-kiss, "cooties," goin' with," and teasing.Thorne observes children in schools in working-class communities, emphasizing the experiences of fourth and fifth graders. Most of the children she observed were white, but a sizable minority were Latino, Chicano, or African American. Thorne argues that the organization and meaning of gender are influenced by age, ethnicity, race, sexuality, and social class, and that they shift with social context. She sees gender identity not through the lens of individual socialization or difference, but rather as a social process involving groups of children.Thorne takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery, provides new insights about children, and offers teachers practical suggestions for increasing cooperative mixed-gender interaction.
