文学作品中的女性是什么样的？男性是什么样的？

不同性别作家是否有差异？

Popular  crime  writer  P.  D.  James  has  said,  “All  fiction  is  largely autobiographical and much autobiography is, of course, fiction.”

You  might  be  familiar  with  the  Bechdel  test,  a  checklist  test  to determine if a work of fiction (most often, a movie) shows gender bias. The requirements, on paper, sound simple.  In order  to “pass”  the  test,the work must  (A)  include at  least  two women,  (B) who  talk  to each other,  (C)  about  something  other  than  a  man.  The  website bechdeltest.com tabulates movies according to the Bechdel test and, as of my writing this, lists 220 movies that were released in 2014. Of these 220 movies a total of 91 failed.
