4. Marked & Unmarked

In the presentation of Marked Women I thought Deborah Tannen is a hardcore feminist, but after I read this article (Yes, I confessed that I didn't read the artical before presentation. I hope Sonja will pass this information.) I understand that she is not. In my opinion women create this marked or unmarked theory themselves. There is a competition between themselves. You can recognize that on street while you are walking. They look each other like they will beat each other. When we come to this he or she situation. I guess it is because of male-dominancy in the mediaval ages. In old times women has no right to do anything in community. Maybe liturature evolved in that way, I mean under male-dominancy.
