dc.description.abstract	"The sexist, rapist (that's a p) and generally womenhating productions that are perpetrated by the Drama Division are dangerous as well as disgraceful. From Nova Funk to Measure for Measure women are cast in either the role of luscious victim, dumb whore or vile hypocrite. As a literature student currently studying Shakespeare I was shocked that Measure for Measure should be the play chosen for production. Shakespeare has written far greater, and funnier plays, and cast women in strong and intelligent roles to boot. "The Dutchman" is another of these dramas-with-incentive-to-rape, But it's got a new twist: cast the white woman as the violent racist (that's a c), and you've got the perfect victim; that is, she deserves what she gets."	en_US
