That approach hasn't worked with "Feminists" as you can see by reading the
following article.

Feminism against science
http://www.mugu.com/cgi-bin/Upstream/People/Goldberg/science.html
Brief Summary: Feminist scholars have attempted in past years to use
Margaret Mead's work to justify sex-role reversibility. Even Mead stated
repeatedly that men have dominated societies as 'leaders in public affairs
amd the final authorities at home.' Feminism seeks to impose its own
ideological interpretation.
