2 days ago marked 100 years of the birth of the postmodern feminist mom (sorry Emma Goldman), the indirect cause of Sylvia Plath be so read between the first university cycles (now less than before), and one of the brightest women of this century (along with Susan Sontag, incidentally). I read in passing
The Second Sex, by way of understanding the kind that even today I find it elusive to understand, much less understand (except occasional specific cases). The concept is simple: Women are made, not born. While I disagree with the proposals, I can understand that things are going. Roles assigned by society, whether poor, rich, left, right, high, low and expected to act according to their representation. The simplest way lies in the difference between men and women, which comes with physiological differences. Is That's when Simone de Beauvoir involved with existentialist vision (That's when I learned from Camus that we should not make much if any) proposed that women are constructions of society, and thus may change.
I do not agree, not because it is a sexist asolapado, I am because I'm more radical and postulate that the differences in the sex-gender axis, sexual orientation mean absolutely nothing, and in the end everything is defined in a matter of roles family and parenting. But their demands are a good starting point to understand all of this core.
I have to thank you very much for writing this book. There is nothing less than support women who end up being more macho than the man.
