Hey guys!
I need yr help!
I want to deal with the issue of the subjection of men and women, what are the critics or critical approaches that can help me??!!

I have a difficulty in finding an approach that deals with the subjection of men? To be more specific, I am working on Jude The obscure!!

Thank uuuuuuuuu!!!

i'm not well read enough to recommend a critic or a critical approach with regards the subjection of men, but if i were to take a stab at it myself, i'd say say sexual attraction, the way ads and commercials, not to mention film and television, exploit sexual attraction to subject men to a vice they find irresistable.

in the world of books, the way charles bovary ruins himself comes to mind. he's so infatuated with emma rouault's surface charms and attractions that he weds her, unaware of her wickedness and depravity within. oh well, it's only a book, thank goodness.
