What is particular about women's depiction of sex and sexuality? Why are these portrayals held to different social and aesthetic standards than those by men? Fiction writer Lynne Tillman, performer and writer Wendy Delorme, and writer Chris Kraus will consider the nature and precise limits of the double standard, and how it informs both the creation and reception of their art. Moderated by Sheila Heti, author of How Should a Person Be.
