"Part of a six-part series dramatizing the stories of women's struggles against suppression and discrimination, using the portrayed character's own writings. This segment features two bizarre 19th experiments in which women are the subjects. In the first, entries from the personal diary of Dr James Barry are used to dramatize the female physician's lifelong masquerade as a man. The second story dramatizes the master-slave relationship between Arthur Munby and a working-class woman, Hannah Cullwick seventeen-volume diary". ("Women, Word For Word", VHS, 1997)
