3 essays blog

I think all of these essays are about women being abused and about them being treated as in superior to men. In the first one her brothers, father, and even her mother and sister viewed the men as superior. They abused her sister and every other woman they met. The brothers were allowed to do anything they wanted and the girls were just expected to serve the men and then be married off. This was like the second one because she was the only daughter and was only sent to school because her father thought she could meet men there and get married. I didn’t like the first one at all, but the other two, even though in both people were sexist they both were happy inspirational stories. I loved how through all the years of her father not realizing her talent and potential for anything other marriage at the end after reading her story you could tell he was proud and finally realized who his daughter was and was amazed at her work and wanted everyone else in the family to see her work. Then in the last one even though she was very frustrated and annoyed that everyone assumed her husband had hit her, at least in this one her husband didn’t beat her and he agreed with her and no matter what other people believed they didn’t let it get to them.
