	Wool Works: the blue sock story
		Word history: The term bluestocking seems always to have been one of contempt and derision, for it originally signified one who was informally and unfashionably dressed in blue worsted rather than fl silk stockings.
		As the term bluestocking associated with the women who held salons and who put their energies and emotions into work with each other, it became a term of abuse, with connotations of snob and misfit.
		The bluestockings, excluded from politics, law, education and employment because they were female, formed an alternative, knowledgeable, supportive, competent and intellectually self-sufficient group.

		Incorporating writings by Behn, Burney, and the Bluestockings, as well as Southerne, Shaftesbury, Johnson, Sterne, and Equiano, Nussbaum treats a range of disabilities - being mute, blind, lame - and physical oddities such as eunuchism and giantism as they are inflected by emerging notions of a racial femininity and masculinity.
