It’s perfectly acceptable to design college courses, and even entire degrees, around women or minorities, but devote one course to how men are treated in literature — not even in society, but specifically in literature — an uproar ensues.

The course didn’t seem out of place when classes titled “Women and Literature” and “Native American Literature” were also being taught. But Gouws suddenly found himself on the wrong end of political correctness.
