Why famous educationists throughout history, in both West and East--think of Plato, Aristotle, Erasmus, John Dewey, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Jean Piaget, Confucius, Paulo Freire, and some Islamic educationists etc-- are all males (the only exception coming to mind is Maria Montessori) while education is generally seen as a feminine profession?
