Especially the second part about the new biological determinism is important to be aware of as we so easily take for granted or for The Truth what is written in newspapers. But I too find that we are increasingly confronted with articles stating that men and women are just different. Even in rather left-wing and quality broadsheets we hardly find another message challenging this particular view both in the UK and in other parts of Europe. I also think she makes a valid point when highlighting the differences in treatment between successful men and women. Apparently however high you reach as a woman, whether in politics or in business, you will always be assessed on the way you dress, laugh or talk. So indeed, a book to be read in public and to be honest, personally I quite wanted to be seen with it. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649147074105925437noreply@blogger.com
