Ha! First of all, I want to say that I saw a UPS truck today... So I think I should get like, 5 extra credit points or something. Take that FedEx!
Hmm, what did I want to talk about in class yesterday, but didn't have time for... In "The Magus", I was really interested in how Conchis makes the point that men look at "things" and that women look at relationships between "things". That made me stop and think about how I view the world as a female. I don't know if I look at relationships because that's natural, or if I do because Conchis says I do. I tried to think of before "The Magus" and I think he's right, but not all of the time. I see things just for things sake, but I do think that males notice relationships less. And not in an "I think men are less intelligent" type way, I don't like hopping on the feminist men hating train, but I know we think differently. The way that Conchis used this fact as yet another piece in his game was very clever.
Soo, ya. That's what I would have added to yesterday's discussion.
