I, Charlie Marlow, set the women to work- to get a job! Heavens!" (Conrad)

thanks for this!]]> 2016-08-25 01:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728153 moreno_s7 https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728193 When Marlow asks his Aunt for help he feels as though he is degrading himself by asking a women for help. Marlow feels as though women just need to sink back into their own world and that men should try to shield the women from the world. Marlow beliefs that they should try to keep the women in their fairytale like fantasy world where there is no evil or violence.]]> 2016-08-25 01:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728193 moreno_s7 https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728207 Unfortunately sexism has been a world wide issue and in the book Heart of Darkness we are aware through Marlow that sexism during that time was not seen as gender discrimination but a method used to shield women from the what the real world really is seen for and as the story goes along we can see how Marlow lies  to Kurtz's Intended so that the idea that women need men to survive won't perish. Throughout the book Marlow despises the idea of having to ask a women for help because he beliefs it should be the other way around, which was a very strong belief that women where naïve people that went around and lived in a world full of illusions and we can see this with Conrad's characters such as Kurtz's Intended as well as his mistress and Marlow's Aunt.]]> 2016-08-25 01:26:36 UTC https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728207 moreno_s7 https://padlet.com/moreno_s7/nondf2c6hyib/wish/119728268 You can't underestimate someone based on a gen
