Last week one group from my class made a presentation about the text "Marked Woman". I really liked their presentation in generally.
The subject was very interesting. I liked the ineqalities in genders in names and titels like Mr., Mrs. or Miss. In Turkey women are marked because when a woman is married she have to change her surname or have to add her husband's surname. That makes a woman "marked" woman in Turkey. Also people in Turkey think that women have to stay in home after the marriage, in house the kitchen is the women's area, too. The place of women in society was changed since 1993 but there are still many inequalities between males and females.
On the other hand I never realized that in biologically males are marked, females are the dominant gender:)
Thanks for that presentation.
We always knew we were dominant, but now we have proof! ;-))
