notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scott Russell Sanders writes in a variety of genres: science fiction, realistic fiction, folktales, children’s stories, essays, and historical novels. Sanders contributes to both literally and popular magazines. He is a professor of English .

The main idea of Scott Russell Sanders' essay discusses his perception of the conflict of gender equality. This perception came into his mind after witnessing the harsh lives of his surrounding group of people.

He explains in this essay that men in his time had little choice in their future. He also says that men will only survive if they were a factory worker or a soldier. And he always believed he would become one of these two. Also, believe that women had an easier life as they won’t be working in a factory or risking their lives for others like a soldier.  

And then he realized that women also go through stuff he was shocked because he always believes women had an easier, and enjoyable life.

The main purpose of this essay is to recognize that men and women go through hard situations equally but somehow there is a point that men think they go through a lot more
