Woman as Other - 4/24/12


De Beauvoir’s argument in this essay was that people’s opinion in society is still, to say, less than a man’s status. Just the fact that men have a higher status of masculinity than women. It is more acceptable to see a women cooking and cleaning than it is to see a man doing these things.

I think de Beauvoir’s argument can connect to my own argument by the fact that this class is based on women in America. This essay shows a lot of the progression of women in time. The fact that we are still seen as less than a man. I would connect this to my paper in my overall opinion of this class. We talked a lot about what we are in school for so I think relating the difference between men wages and women wages in the work field would be a good way to connect to this article.
