Woolf & Mead

Woolf & Mead

V. Woolf:

    1.      Her audience suggest that she wanted to encourage them and let them feel empowered to stand up and keep fighting.

    2.      She wanted to have gender equality between husband and wife. Women shouldn’t be just stuck at home doing all the work while their husbands went out to receive a good education and a good job.

    3.      Women should be able to receive the same education as men. Both men and women should also play equal parts in the house, cleaning, cooking, etc.

       

       M. Mead:

    1.      Both men and women can have temperamental traits that can relate for one another. One might suggest that they both have strong aggressive traits. These traits can sometimes be so strong that they can interfere one their relationship and sometimes be unforgivable.

    2.      Society loses majorly when they restrict the opportunities of one sex or the other. Doing this will not only put a certain view-point on a task but it’ll also put women on a lower level than men.

    3.      The price that is being paid is society is given labels for each gender’s. For example, women can cry but men can’t, or you’ll be considered as not strong enough. Another example would be that only men are strong enough to do this job.

    4.      Modern industrialized society should be concerned about the ways of “primitive” cultures, because if not then the past will repeat itself. Men will be labeled with only going to work drinking beer and watching sport channels. Where women will be labeled with going to work then coming straight home to cook, do laundry, and maybe drink a glass of wine.
