i want to be a man

wow, totally caught me off guard, i missed the part that julia de burgos wrote all of these poems and i totally thought it was a guy. wow. but anyway that makes it more interesting. Ummmm so basically julia de burgos was an avid supporter and fighter for women's rights. when i learned that i thought is was weird because i felt that she was treating women like objects in her poems and pentachrome is about wanting to be a man. This is all very interesting though because now looking back it seems that she is commenting and criticizing the fact that in history women aren't even considered and only men were important. Even in this class that shines through because we only read men for a while.
burgos would have been so strong and able to do anyhting she wanted and respected if she were a man. Nothing would have stood in her way like Don Quijote the great hero. However because she was a woman and everyhting was against her it made her even stronger and more impressive. Go julia, good job
