Panel Description

38 Women's vs. Men's Magic in Fantasy Feminism, Sex, and Gender•Caucus Room• Friday, 8:45-10:00 p.m.

Has anyone else noticed that male mages are politically powerful and often celibate, where female mages use their power more personally and often derive power from nature, or even sex? And guess which is more respected. Are there truly broad differences between male and female magic? Are there exceptions? Are there stereotypes out there that we should be trying to change?
