taught about mems work and not about
women's. Even in the kindergarten
they learn about Lincoln and Wash
ington and eve the pictures show the
lion and forget the lioness. She
learns history in the high school with
all the brave ideals of men, and cour-
ageous women are completely ignored.

she may not be able to cook an egg,

ematics, but is cheated by the butcher.
She learns political economy, but does
not know who are members of the
