Kate Bornstein's take on Wall E



I shared this interesting essay about the different possible interpretations about the film Wall E on the discussion boards in class, but I felt I ought to also link to it here so more people can read it. It's an eye opener to how we humans tend to see nonhuman objects as 'male or female' and may change your views. It spoke to me because I often have an unconventional interpretation of characters or situations that seem 'normal' on the surface.
