In a group of 97 male chronic alcoholics and other addicts ( M age 37.7 yr., SD = 12.5), scores on the Raven's Matrices and on a multiple choice version of the WAIS Vocabulary subtest were significantly related to scores on the Masculinity-Femininity Scale of the MMPI: higher scorers on the scale had better intellectual skills.

Abstract:
This qualitative study explored the gender schemata of a select cohort of 13 gifted adolescent males. It revealed these adolescents as having an androgynous sex-role identity. However, the findings identified among the adolescents three distinct constructions of androgyny. The data also pointed out some of the intrapsychic problems encountered by the boys in their sex-role identity development—most notably anxieties about femininity and women stemming from demands placed upon the boys by their awakening sexualities. Finally, the study examined the role of their intellectual giftedness in the n

Abstract:
In his intellectual biography of the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber, A Life of Faith and Dissent written in 2019, Paul Mendes-Flohr offers us an intimate view of Buber’s life and thought without neglecting the story of the women in his life and their contributions to shaping his thought. In this short reflection essay, I wish to present a crosscutting perspective on the important biography written by Paul Mendes-Flohr, by highlighting Buber’s relation to women, feminism, and femininity, a perspective that emerges in almost every chapter of the biography. This angle, I hope, will illuminate no

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the sociological work of famous researchers — Ann Oakley, Donna Haraway, Shulamit Firestone and Judith Butler, who worked within the framework of the feminist paradigm in sociology, which interprets social phenomena and processes from a femininocentric point of view. The work of these women sociologists has become a kind of intellectual manifesto — a written statement of the scientific principles of the feminist trend in sociology, based on the belief in the constant discrimination of women in all spheres of social life.Ie author analyzes the works of

Abstract:
This paper argues for a performative methodology that uses body's affect to create change in the current subjectivation to femininity. It locates this discussion into a context of fitness instruction to explore how a researcher can assume a role of a public intellectual through performative pedagogy. It is divided into four parts. The first part examines how critical pedagogy has been utilized previously within physical cultural studies to find ways to further understand how physical activity can be used for purposes of social change. The second part focuses on how physical education can infor

Abstract:
In this essay, I offer a personal/political/intellectual response to Sweetwater. My reflections flow from a bittersweet panel at the 2013 National Communication Association Annual Convention that illuminated the power of black women's work about black women, but simultaneously testified to our oppressive present/absence in the field of communication studies. Situating Sweetwater as a rich foundation from which additional black femininity research can emerge, I close with a poetic articulation of what Robin M. Boylorn told me and taught me through her beautiful book.

Abstract:
According to stigma theory, individuals with disabilities possess “discrediting attributes” that prevent them from meeting culturally constructed standards of beauty. An individual with a disability may find that his or her body is viewed as being somehow defective, deviant, or grotesque. Persons with disabilities feel that they are unable to achieve the societal ideal and that their masculinity or femininity may be questioned (Bucciere &amp; Reel, 2009). As a result, individuals with physical and intellectual disabilities face a decreased sense of self worth, poor body image, and in some case

Abstract:
This thesis reconsiders the generally held view that Friedrich Nietzsche's works are misogynist. In doing so it provides an interpretation of Nietzsche's texts with respect to the metaphor "woman," sets this interpretation into an historical context of Nietzsche reception and follows the extension of Nietzsche's metaphor "woman" into French feminist theory. It provides an interpretation that shows that a misogynist reading of Nietzsche is in error because such a reading fails to consider the multiple perspectives that operate in Nietzsche's texts.

Abstract:
The democratic revolution raised a new set of intellectual questions concerning the status of women in modern society. Specifically, theorists and activists alike had to ask what exactly the transition into political participation meant both for the political process and for conceptions of feminine subjectivity. This chapter examines efforts to contend with these questions from a variety of different perspectives: the pacifist-internationalist turn of the Nietzschean Helene Stöcker (1869–1943); the more sociologically informed intervention by Marianne Weber (1870–1954) and her concern about th

It also explains how women were easily dissuaded from taking on ambitious projects and readily diverted from assuming self-sovereignty or facing their freedom.

Employing a longstanding rhetoric that correlates the status of society and the status of women, Chinese critics argued that the depiction of suffering, emotional, and self-sacrificing female figures was the most powerful tool in Zweig’s critique of bourgeois society.
