Cixous

Cixous

Summary

            Cixous talks about how she see that women should write in a women’s voice and men should write in a males voice. She’s trying to make the point that women need to make there mark in the writing community. She try’s to back up her points with sexual references. Also she even balms men for putting women “in the dark”.

Syntheses

            Cixous paper is like Flynn’s paper. They both talk about woman and men’s in they’re writing and how there perceived in their discourse communities.

Reflection

            I don’t like this writing as much because I really don’t like the sexual references. I feel it’s a little over the top and too much. She talks about women getting thee own voices and not use men’s voices but the sexual comments/references makes her sound as though she has a “male’s voice”, which counteracts her point. Also she never says what a “women’s voice” is but yells about it non stop for use to find it so it doesn’t help the matter.
