Feminist theory: Sex and the Naipaul Brothers, presented by Ms. Meghorn Cleghorn

I loved how Ms. Cleghorn tied feminist theory into her presentation. She highlighted why Savory Fido is against V.S Naipaul's image of the character of women in his writings. Fido believes that Naipaul is punishing the woman by using sadomasochism and masochism. However, Ms. Cleghorn disputes this theory by arguing that Naipaul is giving the woman power by reversing the roles between the man and the woman. The woman is the one who is in control of her sexuality and therefore she decides what she wants to do sexually. The power of choice is what gives her the control over the male character.
