I know class is over and the gender unit was forever ago, but...

I love Jackson Katz.   He was the first male gender studies major at UMass Amherst, and he's a badass feminist who travels the country talking about gender-based violence. I've seen him speak at BC twice about gender violence and just found his TED talk. So if you are looking to procrastinate during finals, he has a really cool talk that incorporates gender violence, dominance, linguistics and a whole bunch of other cool stuff.

    I just watched this as well. Perhaps there is a tide rising of shared sentiment on how poorly we miseducate/socialize our men to be fuller versions of men. I'm not saying it's not hard to be a woman, but rather that they are in dynamic dysfunction with each other.

    And I still am looking for the 'like' button on blogger. Where's the recommendation box?
