With the increasing spread and pervasiveness of technologies, the role of gender in the design of these technologies is a topic of growing importance. This paper provides a review and consolidation of the most recent efforts over the past 5 years in understanding the role of gender in interaction design. We discuss, in particular, how recent approaches to gender in human-computer interaction move past questions of how men and women interact differently with technologies. Scholars are focusing on activist, intersectional, and reflexive approaches to gender and identity in design that focus on inclusion and accountability in terms of who technologies are designed for and in what ways. In order to integrate considerations of gender into HCI practice, designers and developers need to develop a greater understanding of diverse gender theories and practices, drawing on insights from science and technology studies, anthropology, and sociology.
