Gender construction & Dustin Hoffman

The Fresh Air Interview: 'Quartet' Director Dustin Hoffman : NPR
If you found the Cameron Russell Ted Talk interesting, try Dustin Hoffman's explanation of what it was like to successfully transform himself into a woman for his starring role in Tootsie. I made the point (packaged as a light-hearted self-deprecating joke) that the model did a better job than I ever could in explaining gender construction in 8 minutes; however, Hoffman definitely has a lot to add to this since he had to remake himself from the ground up for his role. I hope you enjoy it.
