Margaret Mead, Superstar Social Scientist
Manage episode 425705072 series 3519304
Margaret Mead upended the way people think about sex and gender. By studying Samoans up close (and possibly personal,) she realized that not every society shared the same shame and hang-ups as the rest of us.
She was also a rather libertine bisexual, who had a long line of male lovers amid a quarter-century romantic relationship with her female mentor.
Kickass Queers shares the incredible life stories of amazing lesbian, gay, transgender, gender-nonconforming and otherwise queer people.
