Abstract

Gender is not the only unequal power structure that impacts on women and non-binary people’s lives. We all have intersecting characteristics which are subject to discrimination or hostility. Experiences such as racism, homophobia and ableism add to the adversity faced by women and non-binary people and can entirely change how we experience our gender and what expectations we face.

Dealing comprehensively with all the ways that gender intersects with other power structures is impossible in a short blog. We instead look at three different characteristics that impact on how gender inequality is experienced.
