Rahul 360 _ahulpuroh7426 — I learned so much from this book about Afghanistan & the Taliban, along with how someone assimilates into American culture from truly another world.

Alberto Fiocco albertofiocco — This was simultaneously brilliant and saddening. I didn’t expect these words to resonate quite as much as they did. I didn’t expect to be able to immediately apply them to my life. I was looking for a historical perspective, some sign that we are headed in the right direction. We are. At least, I think so. Unfortunately, those steps we have taken don’t seem as dramatic anymore. I mean, women can vote. They can run for office. They have been liberated from traditional sexual confines. They can take pride in just being. One of Wollstonecraft's biggest arguments was that women are socialized to appeal to men at their own expense. They don’t exercise their own wills or minds except for in a very limited sense. Where are they left when the passion dies? They are incapable of commanding respect or friendship. The best they can hope for is to be treated as lovely, mindless things whose sole purpose for existence is to satisfy the whims of the more dominant sex, which, after their mates have become habituated to their presence, is impossible. Popular culture still surrounds us with the idea that women need to be beautiful, that everything else is somehow secondary. It is important to be well dressed, to be thin. It bothers me that these words, so eloquently written so long go, have not prompted us to change the way we bring up our children. Beauty isn’t everything. Love isn’t everything. Relationships are not everything. We have to refine ourselves in order to refine our culture.
