In Susan Brownmiller's essay Femininity, she has ideas that are both modern and outdated. For the most part I agree with them, only because her thoughts coincide with how society views women today. Some of the thoughts she states only deal with society's views of woman in the past and p...

It means a lot for me to be female in today's society. It means I'm inconsistent with my male counterparts. It means I have to sit with my knees tightly pressed together or my legs crossed in public (oh, it doesn't matter if I'm not wearing a skirt.) It means I'm expecte...
