Mankind

MANKIND. PATRICIA PETERSEN, BA FINE ART, UAL.

With this video piece, I have attempted to investigate gender biased linguistics in English. I have looked at words that are biased to the male gender but are used as a general term for all genders and non-binary identities. By looking closer to the definitions in the dictionary I discovered that some of these words were defined exclusively to the male gender even though they are commonly used for all genders and non-binary identities.
