Susan discussed subjective truths, still the book caught my attention. I wanted to know more about womanhood, and its perception. The book is relatable in some respects, and in others it is not. It was relatable by discussing how women are often viewed as inferior, and how unrealistic beauty standards take hold on women’s self worth. Furthermore discussion was raised that womens value declines with age. These depressing realities are ones that I overlook, but tend to agree with glumly. In spite of this, her bleak outlook discredits her, suggesting a negative bias. Arguably nothing was discussed about the benefits of being a woman, which made the book appear immature, and man-hating at best, notably, there was a lopsided argument about the burdens that men face as a result of their power, I received the sense that she had an unresolved vendettas against men. The book was good, but lopsided.

    Lopsided

    Books are not supposed to be balanced, there isn’t a standard dictating that books must cover all aspects of the topic.
