Gender identity has become a topic of much discussion, both in society and in (music) education. Researchers have explored various topics surrounding gender over the past several decades. One such study was Koza's (1993a) content analysis of choral methods textbooks and articles published between 1982 and 1992 utilising Socialist Feminist Theory to explore issues of gender stereotyping and misogyny. Wondering if anything had changed, the authors explored these same types of materials and websites published between 2008 and 2018. Three main themes emerged from the data analysis: (a) replication of 'traditional' ideas through citation, (b) a seeming shift since 2016, and (c) two camps and coded language. Each of these themes are explored in detail and the authors suggest possible ways forward for choral music education scholars as they navigate the increasingly complex gender discourse of the twenty-first century.
