For Thursday, analyze and evaluate the article, "I Want A Wife" by Judy Brady. Be prepared to discuss the following questions in class:
What is her tone?
What is her goal in writing; what is she trying to persuade her audience about?
Who is her audience, do you think?
Is she effective in accomplishing her purpose?
What premises underly her argument?
Does she employ mostly rational tactics, or nonrational tactics?
Why do you think she chose to construct her argument this way?
By the way, the article link opens up a downloadable file instead of a published web page (part of the technical difficulty I spoke of), but if you save it and open it with Microsoft File Viewer or some such program, it should work. Please tell me if you're having troubles with the file!

¿Hay sólo una página o no trabajó para mí?
