The Lenses of Gender

I designed this image as a front cover for a short story I wrote for a friend’s daughter. Both the story and the image have been heavily influenced by Sandra Lipsitz-Bem’s book The Lenses of Gender. I was also influenced by her class “Psychology of Sex Roles” which I took as an undergraduate at Cornell. I recommend the book if you are at all interested in the psychology of gender roles in western culture!
