@hurstont_MSU Takes a *lot* of work to recognize and overcome socially ingrained prejudices. Parents, friends, schools, etc. can play a part

TA Peaches needs help deciding her superhero identity (like Kamala): SuperDog, OffredDog, or AquaDog? #womenonmen

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

Two @ChimamandaSays TEDtalks, both just as brilliant as her writing https://t.co/w85oNDfHzR, https://t.co/apf8NXTGGt #womenonmen

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@ChimamandaSays Such powerful writing in "That Thing Around Your Neck", and such immediacy with the second-person address #womenonmen

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@RavenSimmons11 You and me both! Would love an in-person version, though obviously much less convenient during summer

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@caitlinjanetay She has been awfully coy about reading publicly of late! I'll see if I can catch her...

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@mmohn17 Tried to bring in more intersectional texts - #womenonmen only the start of convo around privilege and who tells whose story

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@npbrao_ Good (and scary) question; huge intersectional issues going on around power that get even bigger for immigrant women

@GWillowWilson Reading "No Normal" with my students for a summer class. Kamala is great, and your male characters really varied! #womenonmen

[Jane Austen Centre @JaneAustenBath]

If newspaper dating ads were around in Austen's time... Mr Collins' ad would be a highly interesting read we think..

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@caitlinjanetay Good point with the Birthmothers/Handmaids! Brave New World has test tube babies - reproduction is a common theme

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@caitlinjanetay The level of control, absolutely! The Giver comes off as more benevolent, perhaps because the deaths are hidden?

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@ashleynlathrop Scary how it's still so relevant nearly 40 years later!

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

Not exactly Handmaid's Tale, but some of these styles reminded me of how Offred describes her veil https://t.co/hhdZIL5rS0 #womenonmen

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@MargaretAtwood Currently reading "The Handmaid's Tale" with my students for a summer class. Unsettling and brilliant as ever! #womenonmen

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

So many questions, every time I read it! https://t.co/S79elGvDld

[Bethany Heinlein @Beheiny]

How I feel about the ending of The Handmaid's Tale...OF COURSE I HAVE QUESTIONS, ATWOOD #womenonmen

“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.” ― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

@mmohn17 Such a good question! Austen's Persuasion kind of flips things, though Anne Elliot isn't nearly as rich as Darcy

[KJ @KJessica_MSU]

Forum discussion questions are up and running - well done Week 3 group leaders! #womenonmen

@caitlinjanetay @beazleyk_msu The neighborhood already supposes him to belong to some daughter or other, his opinions are hardly relevent
