The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Iranian women's gendered identities and language learning through the theoretical frameworks of feminist poststructuralism of gender and language, imagined communities, and communities of practice. Additionally, these theoretical constructs were linked to the concepts of agency and investment in second language learning. This qualitative study aimed at answering the following research questions: 1. How do the Iranian immigrant women' imagined communities and gender identities affect their investment in second language learning before coming to the United States? 2. How do these women view their positions as Iranian immigrant women in the current communities of practice in the United States? 3. Do the imagined communities they formed before coming to the United States match the realities of the current communities of practice? 4. In what ways do these women's present perceptions of being a woman affected their adoption of agentive roles for participation or nonparticipation in the United States communities of practice, and investment in second language learning? 5. How do these women's present imagined communities and gender identities shape their decisions about future participation in the United States communities of practice and investment in second language learning?
