"Until the sixteenth century, men - priests, academics, judges, merchants, prices and many others - wore skirts, or robes. For men, the skirt was a 'sign of leisure and a symbol of dignity', writes Quentin Bell. This is still true for men in high positions. After all, can you imagine the Pope, or Professor Dumbledore, wearing trousers? Have you ever seen a depiction of God wearing pants?"

Det där är så intressant, det brukade jag ofta prata med mina gymnasieelever om när vi diskuterade genus och normalitetsbegreppet.
