>If women's studies teach one thing

Fairly big 'if'.



Jordan's' claim is:

> Go online, go look at ten women’s studies websites. Pick them at random. Read them. They say..

My point is that it isn't sufficient to prove a "sweeping generalization" - if WS courses generally teach this then Jordan has a point.


Anecdotally, the authors I mentioned are staples of an undergraduate course in feminist theory. That said, also anecdotally, there isn't much that can be generalized about womens' studies courses because there are so many divergent concentrations around issues and schools of thought.
