Concept information
Preferred term
adaptive work
Definition
- Our language fails us in many aspects of our lives, entrapping us in a set of cultural assumptions like cattle herded by fences into a corral. Gender pronouns, for example, corral us into teaching children that God is a “he,” distancing girls and women from the experience of the divine in themselves.
