Women in a blokes world - 17:32
Interesting, Stewart is discussing movies in which
women
dress up as guys. I have not seen the movies so can not comment, however
it reminded me of a book I saw an article about linked from
kottke late in March. The article in the
Guardian,
Double
Agent, touched on parts of the Norah Vincent book
Self-Made
Man: One Woman's Journey into Manhood and Back
Norah, a journalist, dressed up as a guy for 18 months and wrote a book about
the experience. Including going bowling with the blokes as a guy activity, and
even dating women during the time. I am keen to read this book sometime just
to see the more detailed reasoning behind her so called newfound respect for
blokey blokes if nothing else. It does sound like a strange but likely
fascinating read though.
