    'Den feministiska rörelsen lärde kvinnor att se sig själva som offer för förtryckande patriarkat... En självpåtagen offerroll är inte ett recept för lycka', menar den konservativa aktivisten och författaren Phyllis Schalfy och denna tes är genomgående även i denna debattbok. Författaren beskriver här hur kvinnor biologiskt, socialt och evolutionärt fungerar - något som den agen...
  • Language and Gender in the Military
    Edith A. Disler
    In the thirty-year history of the study of language and gender, theory and application have branched incrementally like the reaches of a family tree. The study of language and gender has progressed from an eye-opening review of differences between the 'language' of women and men to observations that language served to preserve 'domination' of one sex over another and on to a cr...
  • Online Intersex Communities
    Brian Still
    Once referred to as hermaphrodites, intersex persons are born with a sexual anatomy or physiology inconsistent with social expectations of what constitutes a normal male or female. Of course, this definition of intersexuality, like all definitions, is rhetorically charged. In other words, intersexuality does not have meaning in and of itself that can be separated from the cultu...
  • Reconstruire la Féminité et la Masculinité
    François Tshionyi Kazadi
    Qui aurait raison d’imaginer une humanité exclusivement masculine ou exclusivement féminine ?

Le débat contemporain sur l’identité humaine ou l’identité sexuelle est tellement provoca...

  • Rainforest Asylum
    Sara Ashencaen Crabtree
    Malaysian psychiatric services and policy show some developments similar to those of the West-yet much of the rhetoric that has informed these changes internationally, such as the discourse of service-user empowerment, has yet to be fully embraced within Malaysia itself. The author argues that an important factor here is that psychiatric services in Malaysia retain many of the ...
