Most gender/feminist studies programs are not grouped with the *sciences*. They are normally grouped with the *humanities*."A hallmark of humanistic study is that research is approached differently than in the natural and social sciences, where data and hard evidence are required to draw conclusions. Because the human experience cannot be adequately captured by facts and figures alone, humanities research employs methods that are historical, interpretive and analytical in nature".Humanities scholarship can include scientific aspects to it. Scientific data informs humanities research. But that’s not the core of humanities.Because humanities scholarship does not use the scientific method, fields within is aren’t well described by the phrase “pseudoscience.” Pseudoscience describes areas that *imitate* parts of scientific methods.(Zen Faulkes, Biologist, Professor at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley)___________What are the humanities?The humanities can be described as the study of how people process and document the human experience. Since humans have been able, we have used philosophy, literature, religion, art, music, history and language to understand and record our world. These modes of expression have become some of the subjects that traditionally fall under the humanities umbrella. Knowledge of these records of human experience gives us the opportunity to feel a sense of connection to those who have come before us, as well as to our contemporaries.http://shc.stanford.edu/what-are-the-humanities___________List of topics characterized as pseudosciencehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_topics_characterized_as_pseudoscience+Hard and soft sciencehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_and_soft_science#Controversy
