the comment (From me to Luis Jerez)

My dear boyfriend:

it was very good to read your point of view about the gender issue present in "A room of one's own", but I must confess that I disagree with your point of view.

From my point of view, the gender issue is something that will never change, in terms of make differences between women and men. I also think if it changes will be a boring society because this feminist movements will disappear and everything will be nice. People need confrontations. It is funny to see how nowadays women want to be as men, but they do not see the lovely differences among us and that men are not evil enemies they are our complement. LiKE IT OR NOT.

On the other hand, Women are very intelligent, we always get what we want. For that reason I do not want to under estimate Virginia Wolf saying that if she wouldn't name herself with the last name "Shakespeare" society will not recognize her as an important writer. Instead of saying that I would say that she wanted to publish and be famous easily. Maybe, with this last name she wanted to be famous inmediately.

To conclude women(not every one) are not white birds, we are ambitious, smart enough to do what we want and do not forget my dear that society is made by men and WOMEN it is not a self-suficient entity, so if women writers are not considered good enough let's think what is wrong on their literature.
