Dustin Hoffman on the Difference of Perception Between Men and Women

The Mary Sue has an archived AFI interview with Dustin Hoffman up that talks about his work with the film Tootsie.  It's an amazing piece and makes some very valid points.  Might be best just to let you see it yourself.  There is no other way to express it as eloquently as he.




This is something actors all over the spectrum have dealt with. Boy Meets World has done an episode that focused on this concept, as have many other shows(even Full House) and movies. Some have done it to comedic extremes, but all have had a very valid lesson that could be learned about the treatment and perception of women.
