Starting the day watching "An Education" was a very surreal experience today. My title came from that movie and it was, in many ways, a reminder of how much has changed in my life in the past ten years and how one experience in my youth has made me different and years ahead of everyone else.

Yes yes~ There are really different approaches to it. I believe gender studies is definitely a route to take for this one. With this study, it's impossible not to look at it in a socio-cultural perspective as well.
