Student review (2026-07-29, translated): Highly recommend this course. In fact, I recommend most Gender Studies courses because if you're willing to invest time and effort, your final grade will basically be proportional to your hard work. You won't get that "studied hard but the grade was mysterious" feeling.
Student review (2026-07-28, translated): A very challenging but fun course. Main content is reading manifestos from various feminist historical schools, many without Chinese translations, so you need GPT teacher to translate or grind through the original text yourself—still pretty interesting. Can serve as an intro to feminism.
