I feel that we still have a long way to go when it
comes to how we view one another. It amazes me
that in a society such as ours, that bases its
existence on the equality of all people, that
misogyny (as it occurred in medieval times) still
takes place. A timeless example of misogyny is the
objectifying of women, which suggests that a
womans sexual beauty is her only worth. In dealing
