Hey folks, for those who are (relatively) local, I will be giving a presentation at Stanford University tomorrow (Jan. 15th)! It is a variant of my "Putting the Feminine Back into Feminism" talk, with some bonus spoken word. All the details can be found at this website, and are also pasted below...



JULIA SERANO: What we think of blue and pink! TUESDAY Jan 15, 7:30PM, BCSC Family Room
JULIA SERANO

WHAT WE THINK OF BLUE AND PINK

JANUARY 15, 2013, 7:30PM

Black Community Services Center, Family Room

Julia Serano is a writer, biologist, spoken-word poet, activist.  She has a lot to say about social conceptions of gender, and how "blue is for boys and pink is for girls" works out to affect everyone in different ways.

Her book "Whipping Girl: A Transsexual Woman on Sexism and the Scapegoating of Femininity" is a combination of history, personal experiences, biology and psychology.

This talk is meant to be accessible to everyone, whatever your background in feminism or social justice.

Please come scent-free if you can: bit.ly/bGazuI and bit.ly/KBqdhm
