5th Reading
LADIES FIRST
SUMMARY
The reading deals with the idea that women have always been treated with some social preferences by men. Though they were always considered as the “fair sex”, and they have been traditionally placed “in the home”, they are politely or gently awarded to be “the first” in many situations. According to the text, this kind of privilege is still given to them even though the “Women’s Liberation Movement” has made them feel equal to or at the same social status than men. At least, as the author refers in the text, “none of them seem to object to the rule of “Ladies First”.

My opinion is that women has been, are, and should be always considered and treated as “ladies”. That is why I think that “Ladies First” is the right or proper rule not only for women, but for men too. What I mean is that the courtesy or gentle treat towards ladies talks about the man condition in the same sense of women condition. So, for me, to be a “man” necessary has to imply letting women be the first. But this aspect has to be learned and practiced, and may be that is the reason why today ladies are not the first any more; not only because they want to be equal to men, but because young male people has not learned to treat women as ladies.
