History of Feminism

The links that I put up were just one of the links that I was given to look at and the article's original link in case anyone wanted that.

Here is some stuff that I am aware of. It regards political discourse. It may be true - it may not be: I don't know how much validity it has. However, some of it seems to show a deeper linkage (linguistically and culturally manifested) between ideas. This sort of analysis is what lead F. Luntz to redesign Republican talking points to get maximum appeal to their base. G. Lakoff has been trying to get Progressives and Democrats to think along the same lines in the theory of frames, but it is not clear that it has been implemented:

The whole theory of framing is approximately that of unconscious connections between the symbols (word) that humans use for ideas. Mental symbols are grouped and invoking one automatically invokes the set of those that are linked to that initial symbol (word).

People have differently grouped sets of symbols depending on experience, but there seem to be large sets that are culturally linked.

At any rate, I hope that these are interesting articles if you have not already seen them.
