Brilliant minds that inspired this blog: Bibliography and King Kong, Skull Island, and pertinent feminist studies

Even though this is a blog, its contents are based on a scientific article, in which what I did, how I did it and who's work I used must be crystal clear and honest, so here is the bibliography for all the previous authors from whose work I benefited. 

A big thanks to them as well.
