     In "I Want A Wife" by Judy Brady, the author states, from a feminist point of view, that women are expected to wait on their spouses hand and foot.  She states that she would also like a wife.  Brady's wife would complete all of the household chores, take care of the children and make sure that all of her needs are met before her wife's. 

     The article "Men - It's In Their Nature" Sommers is discussing society's ideas of boys and girls should be raised.  She stated that society as a whole seems to want to suppress these natural "hard-wired traits" [pg. 366] that boys possess. Sommers states that we are trying to make boys more docile and emotional.

     I have decided to write my analysis essay on the article, "Men - It's In Their Nature."  Growing up with 3 younger sisters, this subject was very interesting.
