"How does it happen that half of the population tends to read only about
themselves? And does it matter? In answer to the first question, I would
argue that a number of structural and institutional factors play into
these reading habits – and that these patterns are established very
early on."

On the perennial problem that boys are only expected to read stories
about other boys.

Share and enjoy,
