I am the poster who asked for some "gender neutral" resources for
young adult fiction to integrate with American History curriculum. While
I appreciate the lectures (sent by several well-intentioned respondents)
on my inappropriate use of "gender-neutral" it would be nice if people
simply recommended a few books.
Yeah, I meant feminist (or female-centered) and not gender
neutral, because no piece of writing can be truly gender-neutral, but give
me a break; I AM going to great lengths and risk to change attitudes in
this backwater culture.
Chill the rarified intellectualized yammering and just name a few
books so I can do my job.
Thank you to the few folks who did contribute some resources
(constructive behavior), but none for the vast majority who did nothing
but complain about semantics.
