But I can say that I read The Female Eunich when I was 12. It blew my mind. I went through a period (doesn't everyone?) of trying to be a man-appeasing fembot. There are definitely tangible social rewards for going along to get along, especially when you are young and conventionally pretty. Plus I figured I could 'subvert the paradigm from within' or something. I couldn't pull it off so I decided to go back to my true self. Once you go feminist you can't go back.
