Description

Desmond Morris (au). Morris looks at the difference between men & women & investigates how their roles have changed since primitive times. Contrary to popular belief, our ancestors practiced a form of sexual equality & that it was only with the rise of urbanization that the balance of the sexes was disturbed. In many cultures this imbalance has resulted in the exploitation & suppression of women. Now, women have been faced with the dilemma of struggling to compete with man on his own terms while at the same time obeying maternal urges. Morris explores the hundreds of bizarre & often cruel human rites of passage which have been used to underline gender differences & speculates on the outcome of the long-running battle of the sexes.
