Abstract
4 open-ended questions were administered to 113 Ss taught by 2 male instructors (71 male Ss; 42 female Ss) and to 48 Ss taught by a female instructor (27 male Ss; 21 female Ss). All Ss were undergraduate students at a southern state university. Ten percent of the male Ss and 26% of the females in the male instructors' classes thought there was nothing good about being a woman. Only 5% of the female instructor's female students thought there was nothing good about being a woman. This research suggests a qualified female instructor can enhance self-image of women students.Keywords
