Elizabeth Gould Davis (1910 – July 31, 1974) was an American librarian who wrote a feminist book called "The First Sex".
Biography.
Davis was born in Kansas. "Miss Davis received her A. B. degree from Randolph- Macon College and, after a brief marriage, went on to earned her master's degree in librarianship at the University of Kentucky in 1951." She worked as a librarian at Sarasota, Florida, and while there, wrote "The First Sex".
She argued in "The First Sex" that congenital killers and criminals have two Y chromosomes, that men say they don't mind women being successful but require femininity when feminine qualities work against success, and that a matriarchy should replace the existing patriarchy. Prof. Ginette Castro criticized Davis' position as grounded "in the purest female chauvinism."
