Abstract

We examine the relationship between the linguistic gender intrinsic to person reference terms (such as ‘husband’, ‘man’, ‘he’) and the actions participants use them to do. We show that analysts cannot rely on the fact that a term is gendered linguistically as evidence that participants are using it in order to ‘do gender’. First, we show that linguistically gendered terms are not necessarily deployed by reference to their gendered properties, or in order to make gender relevant. Second, we show that linguistically gendered terms are nonetheless a resource for making gender relevant interactionally. Third, we show that the relevance of gender may be invoked or disattended over the course of an interaction in the service of local interactional goals.
