From the above, one may have to shove
http://translate.google.com into your browser and then paste this string
Code: Select all
http://g1.globo.com/educacao/noticia/2013/05/calouro-da-usp-desafia-preconceito-e-veste-saia-para-ir-faculdade.html
into the resulting page. When I hit Al's link -- with thanks to him for posting that -- I received a warning about infinite loops (nasty things, those).
From the (bad -- machines are not up to this yet) translation, I like the attitude that the university seems to have on the matter. I especially like this passage:
On the issue of gender, [one professor] claims that prejudice appears in the reactions to men who occupy that society wants to restrict only to women. "The first curse you learn is to compare the man to the woman, as if being a woman was something worse. Should be thinking on gender equality."
In a word, "Bravo."

I
ALWAYS TEST a link before I post it.

might be because I had already
translated it. Don't know

We'll chalk it up to being "browser-specific", then.

In any event, the article remains a good, and recommended, read.
