Social construction of gender recognises only two sexes male and female which is based mainly on the reproductive paradigm where two people from the opposite sex come together to produce a new citizen.Belief in this paradigm sets the very basis for heterosexual norms for the society which determines behaviour of people in society. This binary concept of gender leaves no space for people to understand that the linkage between sex and gender is socially constructed and not the natural one.

EQUATIONS is a research, policy, and advocacy organisation working on tourism and development issues in India. Our work has focused on the economic, environmental, social, cultural, political and administrative impacts of tourism particularly on people living in and around tourism destinations. We collaborate closely with organisations and peoples movements, to influence people-centered forms of tourism & policies that ensure significant local benefits and take into account the negative impacts of an unbridled growth of tourism.
