MASQUERADE

The discussion of Masquerade begins with Joan Riviere's 1929 essay in which she discusses a professional woman who after giving an intellectual paper/presentation at a conference suddenly flirts with her male colleagues in order to reassure them that she is not actually competing with them. Goes on to say that "femininity" is always a masquerade, not just in this case but in all women at all times.
