In the early 1900's how did the male poets' views differ from the female poets? How do they overlap?

I think it would be helpful if you offered specific poets that you would like to seem compared.  All poets are different, and it is difficult (and perhaps not all helpful) to compare poets by gender, especially since you didn't specify a country.  For instance, Whitman differs from almost every poet, male or female, in the 19th century.  If you post some additional information, I'm sure you'll get some great feedback.

Thanks.  - Specifically American Poets.  Poets that I would like comparisions on are Harriet Monroe, Ezra Pound, Amy Lowell, T.S. Elliott, James Weldon Johnson, Mina Loy, Langston Hughes, Hart Crane, Robert Frost, and William Carlos Williams.

I know that's a lot but I'm trying to decipher how the male views differ from the females and how they overlap the female views. 

Or, is it the views within the poems?

No actually how the men views differ and overlap the women.

Can you provide the women poets to whom these male poets are to be compared?  This, too, would be helpful.  Thanks.
