Miehekkyyden ja naisellisuuden määrittelyä

Anekdootti naistutkimuksesta: The course was Introduction to Women's Studies.... The class made me think of a skit on Monty Python which involves a quiz show, except the answer to every question is "pork." And what-ever the quiz show host asks--for example, "What's the capital of Pennsylvania?"--the answer is "pork." In the class I took the answer was always "men . . " Who contributes to all the violence in the world?" "Men." "Who's responsible for everything we endure?" "Men." . . .
