Peter Stillman writes: Tony Brewer is of course correct: no recent
paper in any respectable journal could overtly identify rationality and
masculinity.
Can people not understand the difference between endorsing the notion
that 'rationality is masculine' and the point made by Nelson quoted
(from the "respectable" journal, the Journal of Economic Perspectives)
in the previous e-mail that, historically, "people in U.S. and European
cultures tend to mentally *associate* certain characteristics with
masculinity or femininity," including, possibly, rationality with
masculinity (or verse-vice-a)?
