melwilI'm working on my last exam at the moment. It's an essay exam, where they give us four questions before the exam, and two of them will appear on the paper. And we're allowed to take a sheet of notes in. Which means that they're expecting good work.
The topics cover gender, race, class and childhood as socially constructed identities. I find that I'm writing notes and paragraphs that I would have spent half a day trying to understand before this semester. Paragraphs talking about the historically and culturally influenced nature of normal. And this makes perfect sense to me.
Either I'm understanding 'wonk-talk' or it's time to call in the guys with the white coats.
Off to destroy notions of gender. Probably shouldn't have read Germaine Greer before I started writing that essay *g*
