Women in the Masculine world
« on: April 20, 2017, 01:29:30 AM »
Beauvoir says:
The woman herself recognises that the universe as a whole is masculine; it is men who have shaped it, ruled it and who still today dominate it, as for her, she does not consider herself responsible for it; it is understood that she is inferior and dependent; she has not learned the lessons of violence, she has never emerged as a subject in front of the members of the group; enclosed in her flesh, in her home, she grasps herself as passive opposite to these human-faced gods who set goals and standards. (654)

why does she recognize herself thus?-that is the question.
