My mind went blank as soon as I read the question....

So, i don't like some of the feminist aspects of Woolf only because I feel like she takes extremes sometimes. Yes, men did not accept women as writers and only had few expectations of women that had nothing to do with knowledge. BUT do you really think that Shakespeare's sister would have killed herself? What she could have been successful because of the fact that her brother was only the most famous play writer of the time period? For all we know she could have been like Jane Austen or Virginia Woolf. We cannot underestimate the bravery of a woman, no matter what the time period is. The thing I do agree with Virginia Woolf on is that she believes in how amazing women can be as writers and that if you give them the space and time they can do even greater things that men have done.
