So, Germaine, since animals now have rights, how about men?

Article Abstract:

We are still in the phase of pre-feminism, according to feminist Germaine Greer. She believes that women still have a significant struggle ahead of them if they are to achieve freedom and self-determination. She feels that a feminist is a women who regards herself primarily as a woman and identifies mainly with other women. She does not share the view that feminism has been set back in the last 30 years, and emphasizes that there has been a significant increase in feminist activity during that time.

Article Abstract:

There have been many different versions of Heathcliff, the anti-hero in Emily Bronte's novel 'Wuthering Heights.' Cliff Richard portrayed this character in the musical 'Heathcliff,' while one of the most widely admired depictions of Heathcliff was by Laurence Olivier in the 1939 film 'Wuthering Heights.' Timothy Dalton's television Heathcliff in 1970 was better than many observers believed. Singer Kate Bush portrayed the pain inflicted by Heathcliff on women in her 1978 song 'Wuthering Heights.'

Who do you love?

Article Abstract:

Romantic Englishmen have been characterized through the generations as dabbling in literature, having a rather unkempt appearance, having attended a highly regarded school, moving around a lot and being regarded by some as homosexual. Most recently, these characteristics have been seen in actors Richard E. Grant and Joe Fiennes. Some Romantic Englishmen have become involved in travel writing, while others, such as Nick Drake, are found in the music world.
