What reading level is The Man-Made World; Or, Our Androcentric Culture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Never has itoccurred to the androcentric mind to conceive of such a thing as beingtoo masculine. There is no such word! It is odd to notice that whichever way the woman is placed, she is supposed to exert this degradinginfluence; if the teacher, she effeminizes her pupils; if the pupil, sheeffeminizes her teachers.
Now let us shake ourselves free, if only for a moment, from theandrocentric habit of mind.
As a matter of sex, the female is the more important. Her share of theprocesses which sex d...istinction serves is by far the greater. Tobe feminine--if one were nothing else, is a far more extensive anddignified office than to be masculine--and nothing else.
But as a matter of humanity the male of our species is at present farahead of the female. By this superior humanness, his knowledge, hisskill, his experience, his organization and specialization, he makes andmanages the world. All this is human, not male. All this is as opento the woman as the man by nature, but has been denied her during ourandrocentric culture.
