feminine mind 2

Read the whole thing and in a 300 word blog post explain whether you agree, disagree, or qualify the main point Mencken is making about sex differences.

i agree ith any of the points that Mencken makes in his piece. I specifically agree with a few and they are as follows:

section 1. "She may envy her husband, true enough, certain of his more soothing prerogatives and sentimentalities. She may envy him his masculine liberty of movement and occupation, his impenetrable complacency, his peasant-like delight in petty vices, his capacity for hiding the
harsh face of reality behind the cloak of romanticism, his general innocence and childishness. But she never envies him his puerile ego; she never envies him his shoddy and preposterous soul."
There are qualities of males that women may envy, but above that she will never envy his ego and soul for she knows it is only troublesome

section 2. ""Human creatures," says George, borrowing from Weininger, "are never entirely male or entirely female; there are no men, there are no women, but only sexual majorities."'
no one is ever entirely male or female but a combination of the both with one side showing more favorably than the other

section 3. "What men, in their egoism, constantly mistake for a deficiency of intelligence in woman is merely an incapacity for mastering that mass of small intellectual tricks, that complex of petty knowledges, that collection of cerebral rubber stamps, which constitutes the chief mental equipment of the average male. "
Males mistake a lack of intelligence in women because she cannot do someone of the tasks an petty accomplishments males can.

I agree with each of these points being made. Mencken, i believe, supports his points well ith examples and does a thorough jo of convincing the audience to see and believe what he does. He has definitely convinced me, but iwas a little biased to begin with ;-)
