Basically this book is about how we are too focused on what's 'womanly' and what's 'manly'. We divide the world into these categories instead of what's most ... The Man-Made World; or, Our Androcentric Culture. Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Charlotte Perkins Gilman's The Man-Made World is a 1911 book-length essay about what she calls "our androcentric culture." By this she means a culture built mostly for the convenience of one gender and which disregards the other; a culture in which the male is seen as the default and the female as a deviation from the norm. Gilman carefully analyses the consequences of this patriarchal culture on several areas, including the family, health and beauty, art and literature, education, ethics, religion, law and government, politics, economics, and so on.

This early work by Charlotte Perkins Gilman was originally published in 1911. It details the concepts and problems of an androcentric society and outlines how a masculine centred world leads to female oppression. This is a fascinating work and is thoroughly recommended for anyone with an interest in feminist literature. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.
