Leading Like a Girl: For Men Only? “Of course, it is a real testament to the women’s movement that the embrace of feminine traits is now being espoused by enlightened men – and that they are being celebrated for it. But what about the women? Under what circumstances can women finally claim these attributes for themselves and not be punished for them?”
