Adrienne Rich's Essay.. Yeaa..
As I was reading this essay, it got more in depth about how women don't get treated equally when it comes to education. The main part I don't agree with is the part that said relationships are more important than having an education. To me, that's basically saying all women have to be dumb as doorknobs and stay home all day and night to cook, clean, watch the kids, etc. This ain't that! Stay at home wives are boring. You can't go to school right; what if your child needs help with his/her homework? You can't help because you don't know how to do it. I don't think it's fair. Then again, life isn't fair. That's the part that stuck out to me the most. Women can be smart and still be a good mother and wife. But being smart requires some type of schooling. I think men and women should get the same type of education. It's only right.

I think its funny how women today just want to stay at home and not get an education. They want to get married to a guy that takes care of them and gives them money.
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to be successful, intelligent, well-educated, etc., AND have healthy, fulfilling relationships? What do you have to sacrifice to have both?
ReplyDeletei totally agree with you. Women shouldnt be looked at as simple housewives. Women have so much potential and different abilites just like men. They shouldnt be targeted by their gender, they should be treated just the same as men and they should get the same benifts just like men.
