Tania Ørum
Paula Tatiana (Tania) Ørum (born 1945) is a Danish feminist, literary historian and writer who has specialized in women's and gender studies. Together with Lene Koch, in the 1970s she was one of the driving forces behind recognition of the need for university courses in women's research. This later led to the Danish gender and women's research centre KVINFO, to which she contributed from 1981 to 1990. Her own research has focused on the relationship between gender and literature as can be seen in her ''Pamelas Døtre'' (1985). Since her retirement in 2015 from the University of Copenhagen's Department of Arts and Cultural Studies, she continues to be an active writer and speaker, especially in connection with avant-garde art in the 1960s. Biography Born in Tårbæk on 15 May 1945, Paula Tatiana Ørum was the daughter of the engineer Palle Peter Ørum (1915–82) and his Russian-born wife Marina Levia née Piletski. In August 1976, she married the Danish author Hans-Jørgen Niel ...

Feminist
Feminism is a range of socio-political movements and ideologies that aim to define and establish the political, economic, personal, and social equality of the sexes. Feminism incorporates the position that society prioritizes the male point of view and that women are treated unjustly in these societies. Efforts to change this include fighting against gender stereotypes and improving educational, professional, and interpersonal opportunities and outcomes for women. Feminist movements have campaigned and continue to campaign for women's rights, including the right to vote, run for public office, work, earn equal pay, own property, receive education, enter contracts, have equal rights within marriage, and maternity leave. Feminists have also worked to ensure access to contraception, legal abortions, and social integration and to protect women and girls from rape, sexual harassment, and domestic violence. Changes in female dress standards and acceptable physical activiti ...

Gender Studies Academics
Gender is the range of characteristics pertaining to femininity and masculinity and differentiating between them. Depending on the context, this may include sex-based social structures (i.e. gender roles) and gender identity. Most cultures use a gender binary, in which gender is divided into two categories, and people are considered part of one or the other (boys/men and girls/women);Kevin L. Nadal, ''The SAGE Encyclopedia of Psychology and Gender'' (2017, ), page 401: "Most cultures currently construct their societies based on the understanding of gender binary—the two gender categorizations (male and female). Such societies divide their population based on biological sex assigned to individuals at birth to begin the process of gender socialization." those who are outside these groups may fall under the umbrella term ''non-binary''. Some societies have specific genders besides "man" and "woman", such as the hijras of South Asia; these are often referred to as ''third gende ...

People From Lyngby-Taarbæk Municipality
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes.
