Antigone the Feminazi

There is no difference between men and women, but there is a difference in how they are portrayed. Ms. Chiang provided a good example when she stated, "If a female teacher decided to start assigning copious amounts of schoolwork, she would be described as a 'b****,' but if a male teacher decided to do the same, he would be portrayed as 'a hard teacher.'" This shows that, for some people, women are still considered inferior to men. This only becomes more of a problem with the media, such as most of the mainstream hip-hop and TV shows of today. Every day, women are portrayed as "objects," and nothing more.

In Antigone, Creon tells Antigone that she should "act less like a woman." This shows how he feels about the relationship between men and women. When he says this, he is telling her to stop standing up for herself, and to act more obedient. Antigone could be considered an extreme feminist because of her strong urge to defend herself as a woman.
