This humorous animated film graphically demonstrates the way in which men dominate language, monopolise space and structure women into subservient roles. Set in a café, it uses items from a lunch menu and food jargon, such as “waffles”, “mussels”, “man-sized portions” and “waitress wanted” to introduce and highlight a number of points about male and female behaviour.
