Reading: Why Gender Matters: What Parents and Teachers need to Know about the Emerging Science of Sex Differences by Leondard Sax, M.D., Ph.D. for book club on Tuesday. This is going to be a doozy of a book club. Besides the fact that Sax conflates sex and gender, uses straw men arguments, has a financial stake in the project, and switches between peer reviewed studies and anecdotal data without flagging it, I can just tell this book club discussion is going to break down between parents and non-parents and us non-parents opinions won't be valid because of our dusty barren wombs.



Wearing:This is actually yesterday's outfit, but we are still celebrating Wisconsin making it to the Elite 8 last night!

Planning: Work, work, work. I have a deadline coming up and Nick has a conference he is preparing for and leaves on Sunday to present at. The weather has been gorgeous here, but we've been too busy to enjoy it, so hopefully when he gets back we can find some time for a hike - something with a waterfall should be nice this time of year or something in the desert that would be too hot in a few months...

I checked that book out of the library and will skim it before book club - it looks like she addresses Sax specifically.
