Women Rights (The Stranger pg.20-40)

Monsieur Meursault, talkes about the people he sees in the street and how by the end of the day everyone seems to vanish. Then he starts describing his nighbors and one of the neighbor's dog. It is here, that I realize how women rights is a topic to be dicussed in these twenty pages. Raymond, is one of Monsieur Meursault's neighbors, and he was having a relationship with a woman who he though was being unfaithful to him. Raymond treated this woman like and animal he beat her although she screamed in pain. He talked about her as if he wanted to make her life miserable. What I dislike about this, is that men do not realize how many times a year, a day, a month, even a week they are unfaithful to their wifes or girlfriends. They do not seem to notice they do the same things as in this case Raymond's girlfriend did to him. I am not agreeing with the fact that being unfaithful is a bad thing, I am just saying that Raymond treated his "girlfriend" unfairly because there is no reason in the world for a man to hit a woman! Women have been treated unfairly and unsuperior for a very long time, but now a days, women control the world, so its time for men to realize their position and its time for them to act with some respect.

I really liked the way you appoached the topic womens right because it also think that in those pages womens rights are ignored and how a men treats us so unfairly. I only have one advice for you and its that maybe on your next blog you should approach other topics, but other than that great job!

I think your feminist interpretation is valid and important; however, you need to use text to support your responses. Also, write in paragraphs.
