Watch you language!

The following quote is from:

Author(s):

Tobin, Lad

Source:

Early American Literature 25 no 3 1990, p 253-270.

Tobin is arguing that women prefer to use a subtle, contextual language while men prefer a rigid, abstract language. Winthrop and the other male colonial leaders, Tobin explains, oppressed women with their highly intellectual language. Anyway, here's the quote: phallogocentrism.

 All of Tobin's article is written in a abstract, intellectual tongue, as evidenced by the quote. By his own theory, he his oppressing women. Oops.
