A&P is a story told by a young boy who is a cashier.
With plenty of time on his hands he observes people and finds it entertaining. When
three young girls walk through the door, he is unable to keep his eyes off them.
The story goes on with the boy describing the girls and watching them. (Well that
isn’t creepy!!) With this story being told from a guy’s perspective is raises
many concerns from a lady’s point. When I was talking to some of the girls in
class they thought that the young boy was very arrogant and rude with the way
he talked about the ladies. But here is my thought to all of the extreme
feminists about this article. Do you ladies ever find a man attractive, and in
the best words I can think of at the moment, “pick and choose” what you do and don’t
like about them right from the get go? I know that if a female were to write a
story about what she thought about a guy who she just saw I am sure that some
of the guy’s reactions would not be nice either. Although when comparing men
and women they are obviously very different from the start. What if you were a
guy alone walking back to your dorm on campus at night? Hardly any guys would
have any problem with that. But you ask women how they feel and almost all
would say that they don’t even want to go near campus alone at night because it
is creepy or they just feel weird like something is going to happen to them. This
partly defines a female identity just in the way we process things differently
than men. This pattern of thinking so differently than men may never change.
