American author Hanna Rosin caused controversy last year when she published her book 'The End of Men'.
Read an interview with her in the Telegraph first and then...
...a response disagreeing with her in the Guardian.
What is your opinion? Are women taking over?
What will the world look like for men and women in 10 years? 50 years? 100 years?
Remember: the most important aspect of A2 Media is developing the confidence in your own opinions and thoughts.
Questions: answer these on your blog (finish for homework - due Tuesday)
1) To what extent do you agree with Rosin's hypothesis that women are taking over modern society? Give examples in your response.
2) Can we find examples in modern media that support Rosin's suggestion that women are taking charge? You may wish to argue the opposite - that men still dominate the media scene.
3) Research Judith Butler's approach to feminism. How might Butler respond to Rosin's writing in The End of Men?
