association is not absolute, and the contrasts
between male and female voices are presented
here to highlight a distinction between two
modes of thought and to focus a problem of
interpretation rather than to represent a generalization about either sex. (1982, p. 2)
It is these "two modes of thought" and the "problem of
interpretation" which are of interest to me in this paper.
