Quotes are needed in the essay hence why I need someone who has read the book.Choose one topic to write about.1) In A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, Mary Wollstonecraft expresses the “wild wish ... to see the distinction of sex confounded in society” (172). What are Wollstonecraft’s main arguments against social, political, and educational distinctions based on differences in gender? How would society as a whole be improved in her opinion if such distinctions disappeared?2) Wollstonecraft contends that due to their current education and the gender roles they are expected to play “to their senses are women made slaves” (178). Why does an education geared towards sensibility (a focus on the senses and outward appearance) and pleasure enslave women according to Wollstonecraft? What, on the other hand, should be the focus of an education that would liberate women in her view and why?3) Wollstonecraft concedes that one of the crucial roles women play in society is that of a mother. How does the system of female education in Wollstonecraft’s time and women’s status in marriage prevent women from being good mothers in Wollstonecraft’s view? Why and how would women become better at fulfilling that role and how would families as a whole benefit if women’s education and social status changed along the lines Wollstonecraft argues for in the Vindication?4) The idea of friendship (between husband and wife, between parents and children, between boys and girls at school) plays an important role in Wollstonecraft’s argument for equality between the sexes and healthier relationships and social structures. How does Wollstonecraft understand the concept of friendship and why and how would both individual and social life be improved in her view if friendship became a social ideal?Your outside sources need to be scholarly sources.
