Is gender learned or innate? This controversial play asks the question: what happens if you raise a boy to sew and behave as a girl, and raise his sister to fight as a soldier? For the first time, Guillén de Castro?s La fuerza de la costumbre (?The Force of Habit?) is available to English and Spanish audiences with a performance-tested translation on facing pages.
