"My perspecâ€" tive is ‘anything goes.‘ " 74.99 hopelessness of what I am doing."‘ ‘"Psychology seemed to be preoccupied with documenting the effects of depression of women, rather than finding the source of their problems," said Dawnâ€"Wyne. "It became painfully obvious that the work I was doing was only supporting this." At the centre of the problem with research is what Dawnâ€"Wyne terms "doâ€" main assumptions‘ where man is seen as the normal. **Because male dominance is seen as the norm, male superiority is seen as the norm as well," said Dawnâ€"Wyne.
