According to Marry Wollstonecraft, they are rendered weak and wretched

Step-by-step explanation:

A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is infinite often than not observed as a completely political exposition. However, like Plato’s Republic and Rousseau’s Emile, it can be seen as both a legislative and an informative exposition.

It is above all a recognition of the rationality of women. It establishes an attack on the view of female knowledge put forward by Rousseau and countless others who regarded women as weak and contrived and not intelligent of thinking completely. Mary Wollstonecraft rejected the education in dependency that Rousseau advanced for them in Emile. A woman must be intelligent in her own right, she argued. She cannot understand that her husband will be intelligent! Mary Wollstonecraft directed that this did not contradict the role of the woman as a mother or a carer or of the role of the woman in the home. She affirmed that ‘meek wives are, in general, silly mother.
