Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz is a woman who was born in New Spain which is now Mexico. She wanted to know more about anything. So she begged her mom to be allowed to dress like a boy and go learn in Mexico City. Her mother only agreed to send her daughter if she goes disguised as a scholarly priest. She was very hard on herself and if she did not meet her expectations she would cut her hair short. In her letter she sounds very annoyed. She pretty much calls men a coward and that men hold women to a double standard that men want one thing from a women but then complain about how women act. Men want women to be a certain way and pressured in to always doing the right thing. In the poem it is noted that men are very good at blaming women for faults that men have made themselves. I think this poem is very interesting because it is very modern and feminism is a pressing topic in recent current events. Even in today’s society it is shown that women are still held to a double standard that women are less than man.
