Staci Whitten Kamrar Writing 115 4-20-11 My Response on, I want a Wife, By Judy Brady The article I Want a Wife, by Judy Brady was a very up- setting, heart racing and a very mind boggling article to have to read. I thought this essay was a piece of crap. I thought it was very sexist, and is very degrading on women. If I would be able to say a few words to the author I’d tell them that they should be a shamed of writing this.

The way that men treat women is very degrading; embarrassing; disrespectful; humiliating; controlling; and tons of others that I can’t think of, but it’s some kind of power issue that man have. What pisses me off most is that men constantly put women down so much that we lose all respect and confidence in
