13.06.2023 | 5:00 p.m. to approx. 7:30 p.m. | online | Hosted by: Studierendenwerk München Oberbayern | Pleas note: The workshop will be held in German. | What different concepts are there regarding gender-sensitive language? And what are the ideas behind the asterisk, colon, underscore or the “Binnen-I” (medial capital I)? Gender-sensitive language is a controversial topic in Germany. Quite often, it also comes to attacks on feminist positions and on all the people who are standing up against discrimination. What are the positions hiding behind terms such as “Gendergaga” or “Genderwahn” [gender mania]? What sort of argumentation do we come across where (online and offline) and how can we deal with it in an adequate way?
Apart from providing information introducing the topic and concepts, this interactive workshop is also about reflecting on your own point of view as well as about the question when and with whom you want to start a discussion on the topic.
