Free topic: Simone de Beauvoir


Hello! Today I am talking about on a person that I admire.

I admire to Simone de Beauvoir, philosopher and French novelist who was born in Paris in 1908 and died in 1986. 

Simone is known for different works he has written as: guest, the blood of others, all men are mortal, and trials for a moral ambiguity, the day America, the second sex. His works concerned issues of history, freedom, commitment that had characters from the existentialist perspective. In addition, she was one of the founders of the modern times magazine.

One of his most important works and the work that I met her, was "the second sex", which deals with an analysis of the affects how being a woman, describing in the text some of the characteristics of male oppression towards women. This work became one of the most important within feminism since sample women from Existentialist analysis different aspects of women, from biology, anthropology, reproduction, the history and differences that put women at a background.

One of the slogan from Simone de Beauvoir is “One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman”, where she think about what is being woman, reaching the conclusion that the sex does not determine the behavior of being of women but if, is determined in how they educate and raise us. This slogan also cause the emergence of different thoughts and theories like, queer theory.


I admire Simone it mainly because of the importance of his work in the second sex and their fight for the vindication of women.
