Book Synopsis Our Androcentric Culture Or The Man-Made World Charlotte Gilman- Illustrated by : Charlotte Gilman
Book excerpt: Charlotte Perkins Gilman's The Man-Made World is a 1911 book-length essay about what she calls "our androcentric culture." By this she means a culture built mostly for the convenience of one gender and which disregards the other; a culture in which the male is seen as the default and the female as a deviation from the norm. Gilman carefully analyses the consequences of this patriarchal culture on several areas, including the family, health and beauty, art and literature, education, ethics, religion, law and government, politics, economics, and so on.
