Women and men are different. For politeness's sake, I like to attribute that to different social expectations of the two genders, but arguing and defending that position is beyond the scope of this blog. Recently, the legitimacy of women-centered and women-only spaces has been on my mind, as have the differences between the two and whether the first must imply the second. Specifically:
-Should spaces that acknowledge and attempt to counteract the androcentrism of the rest of the world exist?
-Do men need to be excluded from such spaces in order for them to function?
-Why do women feel the need to defend themselves from men specifically, rather than from nasty people in general? Are men disproportionately nasty?
