This was an interesting and succinct post, Jenny! You offer a heartfelt and well-rounded critique of Mary Wollstonecraft. What I felt you posited particularly well was how “[b]oth men and women are human beings who have the right to life, liberty and happiness.” This is something I certainly agree with; many people view feminist literary criticism as a direct method of segregating genders and minorities, and forget its core values relate to equality and unity. Your discussion discerns an appreciation of how “Mary inspired people because she spoke from the heart”. This was an articulate and carefully considered piece. A great read! – Mariama 😊

And excellent peer review Mariama, but where you can it is worth making gentle suggestions for what might be improved, or maybe how you see the situation slightly differently 🙂
