Yeah, Robin, those two are there, but I was referring to Disch's 334, the
chapter therein on the pregnancy a man undergoes as his wife if working and

children at home etc...
Some of the most stringent thinking through of gender politics can be found
in Gwyneth Jones's amazing Aleutian Trilogy, White Queen, North Wind, and
Phoenix cafe.
