bailed

Got 1/3 of the way through on my 2nd attempt. I'm just not following her arguments. Probably my fault.

Helping my son stay focused on his college work- he is reading Wollstonecraft aloud to me. It‘s mind boggling that she was such a visionary, equal rights advocate in 1792. What she espoused was totally against the social, cultural, religious mores of the times. I wonder if she would be amazed that women still struggle for their rightful place in our society?

ValerieAndBooks One thing I recently learned was that Aaron Burr was a fan of this book — he carried around a miniature portrait of Mary Wollstonecraft, and made sure his daughter Theodosia had a relatively good education. Maybe share that tidbit with your son 😊 5y

kspenmoll @ValerieAndBooks Thank you! He had no idea about Aaron Burr being a fan of the book & loved your tidbit!! 5y
