Answer:

D) to have in one's mind

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story of "Jane Eyre," written by Charlotte Bronte. The incident occurred when John Reed, Jane's cousin, acted cruel again to Jane. He asked Jane what she was hiding (she was actually hiding a book and reading it) and asked her to show him the book. <u>John then demanded that she had no right to touch anything that belonged to them</u> (such as their books). This started the argument with Jane and in the end, John threw the book at Jane. Jane then started shouting at John and calling him a murderer and likened him to the cruel Roman emperors.

The incident caught the attention of Bessie and Miss Abbot. Such incident became evidence of Jane's bad manner according to how she acted, since <u>John was considered the son of her benefactress.</u> This then proves that the word "entertain" means "to have in one's mind." The incident just added to what Bessie and Miss Abbot had in mind, particularly on the bad side, about Jane Eyre.

makkiz [27]

Yes, I myself have bad attitude and I know several of my friends that have bad attitude. It was like getting stung by a bee I did not like the way they were treating me and I was talking so calmly to them and they were still being mean even though I didn't even do anything to them to hurt them. Everyday I would say hi to them and they would disregard it :(

Well from that point on I just stopped hanging around them because hanging around mean people just isn't worth my time anymore to be frank.

I hope this answers all of your questions!

Describe how Judith Butler differs from the phenomenological feminism explicated by Simone de Beauvoir. Include in your answer w
worty [1.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

Judith Butlers argues that gender is created by the act of your performance. The performance is already constituted, and it is being performed through the individual acts of the body. She further elaborates on the idea that we are obliged to consider the binary gender system. She proposes that gender identity is constructed through acts. There should be a space to construct different gender based on individual acts. We are confined in our bodies, and people have to Act to move in society.

Butlers argue that performing a gender itself creates a gender. Butlers critique the terms Sex and Gender, which are being used by feminists. She argues that it is dangerous to make a group of Women describing its particular characteristics. So she is of the view that feminists should not use the term Women. The main agenda of her to create a society that should be “flexible, free-floating and not caused by other stable factors.”

In her essay, Second Sex, Beauvoir defines that women are considered as second sex because they are defined as a relation to men. She argues about the St. Thomas, who referred women as an imperfect man. She suggests that women are being considered others in a society, which is an excuse for men not to understand women and their problems.

She talks about the hierarchy in the society like race, class, and religion in the same way gender is being categorized to give rise to the patriarchal system.
