In this paper, from an interdisciplinary point of view, which is based on the theoretical

The analysis reveals that, anchored in the traditional stereotype of women, the self-help discourse adopts a melodramatic tone and especially a didactic tone, proposing to women that they need to be more rational and less emotional¸ collaborating, in a non-obvious way, to maintain the system of inequalities between the genres. |
