Text Introduction | Culture Notes | Author | Structure
This revealing argumentative essay convincingly argues that associating beauty with women has put beauty even further on the defensive, and does much harm to the notion of beauty and, in particular, to women. Meanwhile, the writer exposes and criticizes the social prejudices or sexual bias against women in relation to beauty. Moreover, she points out the way for women to get out of the crude trap in which they have been caught for too long and calls on people to do something to save beauty from women and for women.

By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art.”;
