Then why is the article about gender at all?
- FuzzyDunlop 14y agoI agree; why is gender even relevant to this? The author volunteers for female-only class (which he makes sure to highlight), and thus assumes his whole experience is down to the fact the class is all female. Remove all references to gender and there is no significant change to the story. I think that reveals the complete irrelevance of gender. My original point, which I guess wasn't worded very well, was that we're told about one experience in one classroom, and that has been blown up to account for the entirety of female-kind.
