Abstract

Through the last century the western world has been faced with the relatively new concepts of feminine equality and power. Academia has been influenced by theorists such as Simone de Beauvoir, and more recently Judith Butler, who have created a terminology to help define the subtleties of gender inequality. Western governments and society have grown to accommodate changed conceptions of femininity, though many would argue that women are still bound by an association of sexuality or vulnerability that hinders progress in more "masculine" vocations or relationships. Those at the University of Chicago that would argue this, and fight for the reversal of those norms, are the subjects that interest me in terms of defining the influences of Western culture and the universality of emotional concepts
