Writing Techniques
After reading Katha Pollitt?s essay ?It Takes Two: A Modest Proposal for Holding Fathers Equally Accountable? and Patricia Mainardi?s essay ?The Politics of Housework?, several writing techniques become apparent in both essays.
In Mainardi?s essay she uses historical references to give her arguments substance. For instance she uses Martin Luther King Jr. as an example explaining that while he was out working his wife was at home taking care of the housework. She also throws in her opinion of what men really mean when they say something. Over half of her article is complete sarcasm towards men. Obviously this essay is meant for a female audience. Mainardi also uses stereotyping in her essay because she talks about all men in general, saying that all men are lazy and hate to do housework.
In Pollitts? essay she also targets the male population holding men accountable for many problems. Pollitts? essay really has no substance; her entire point is that fair is fair. Yet how many things in life are really fair? I don?t believe a person will find to many Her ideas or plans to make things fair are completely far fetched and unrealistic, hence the title ?A Modest Proposal.? This essay is targeted toward the female audience with a soul purpose of getting a laugh or two here and there on the behalf of men. So was her purpose successful, I don?t know as I am not a woman but if the situation were reversed I would probably have gotten a giggle or two.
