So it’s been a tough couple of days. Yesterday was a blur of reading notes on developmental psychology, and I had 40 names and dates to completely memorise in just four pages, not to mention all the rest of the notes that I had to get stuck in my brain on children’s eyewitness memory.

In actuality we studied 5, but would only answer two quest

He can easily say complete sentences by himself, but even with new phrases, I don’t need to say 2-3 w

For a long time, feminist theory has talked about the presence/absence thing, and how it operates in society, or is the basis for a hierarchy of power. Y’know, a metaphysics based on having or possessing ‘it’ or not having or possessing ‘it’ (and by ‘it’, I am being coy. It’s the phallus, doncha know) . By extension, the absence/presence thang plays into all sorts of other subjects of concern to those interested in gender: history, labour, public life, literature… Related to the absence/pre
