Abstract
On their new book. Grappling with gender-based paradoxes and questioning gendered taboos, two goals animate Gender, Culture, and Physicality: to reveal how gender continues to be enacted in ways that dehumanize women and men, and to stimulate thinking and action toward a fuller realization of human potential and partnership. Operating from an ethic of care, in which all people are understood as being created equal, Helen M. Sterk and Annelies Knoppers argue that as long as women and all that is associated with them are devalued, cultural practices will remain implicitly gendered and humanity itself, reduced.
