Read the excerpt from A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.
Alex_Xolod [135]

This idea enhances Wollstonecraft’s argument by suggesting that women’s natural curiosity will lead to trickery if it is not nurtured through education.

<em>A Vindication of the Rights of Woman</em> is an exposition on overcoming the oppression and denial of the women in the society. It is a dedication to <em>Charles. M. Talleyrand</em> whose views on women education to Wollstonecraft were repugnant. She blamed the condition of adult women due to the negligence of girl's education. The women in the society only care about being attractive, modest and elegant. They are deprived to defend their fundamental rights and are treated as subordinates.

In her argument, she describes ways in which women combine their silliness. Their silliness includes visiting fortune tellers, reading a stupid novel, rivalries with women, and so forth. Due to women's low status and no education results in women's faults and not due to natural deficiency.
