DESCRIPTION:Mon 2 Mar\, 1-2pm. Ethnographic collections formed in Britain
  in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were invariably informed by c
 ontemporaneous notions of gender and sex. The chiefly male collectors mi
 srepresented and misappropriated objects associated with concepts of gen
 der and sex\, found beyond Europe\, to fit their own particular colonial
 ist world view. Sex was inextricably associated with child birth\, women
  with domesticity and men with warfare and violence. This ethnocentric p
 aradigm was reproduced in museum displays and interpretation. This talk 
 is part of the Wellcome Collection’s Sexology Season www.wellcomecollect
