query: teaching article, gender and language in India

[Jim Wilce]

Rachel, I would start with this:

Hall, Kira
	1997	"Go Suck Your Husband's Sugarcane..." In Queerly Phrased:
Language, Gender, and Sexuality. K. Hall and A. Livia, eds. Pp.
430-460. Oxford: Oxford University Press.


If you want to widen your study to South Asia in general, how about the
award-winning book,
Ahearn, Laura M.
	2001	Invitations to Love: Literacy, Love Letters, and Social Change in
Nepal. Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press.


Best,

Jim
