“In my profession more generally, it's not an exaggeration to say that masculinity is viewed as the root of all evil. If you were to take a literary theory course, you might think it would be about literature, but it's really not. It's about all the various forms of oppression on earth and how we can see them playing out in literary works. And behind all these forms of oppression is a guy.” IfsThinkingMightWould BeEarthFormGuyCoursesEvilLiteratureBehindsTheoryRootsVariousProfessionOppressionMasculinityExaggerationLiterary WorksLiterary Theory Author:Jonathan Gottschall
