American journalist Norah Vincent decided to invent a new persona for herself, Ned, and spend 18 months disguised as a man. During that period she entered the world of men as fully as she could - she joined a male bowling league, infiltrated a men's therapy group, dated women and even retreated to a monastery.
Martha talks to Norah Vincent about her experiences and her resulting analysis of both men and women's behaviour.
