| Popis: | This article argues that there is a socially constructed women-centered reality that is shared by most women and some men. The characteristics of women-centered reality are discussed as are the ways of discovering it in time and in varied discourses. The invisibility of women-centered reality within traditional and liberal thought, and its diminution and reconsignment to a position relative to the male referent is discussed, using judicial and constitutional canon within the context of women ` position in the military and pornography. The same diminution and invisibility with regard to rational-legal settings, that is, organizations, is explained. Finally, the EEOC's Guidelines on Sexual Harassment are used to illustrate the dilemma for attaining women-centered reality within a rational-legal setting. Throughout, an argument is made for the positive contribution of women-centered reality. |
