The Canterbury Tales. Wow.
The knight finds out from the old woman the secret of "what women desire most". The knight reports back to the queen and tells her that what women desire most is "self-same sovereignty".
If you don't remember what this means, see the side note in your book on page 160.
Do you think that the knight is on target with this answer? Explain.
Once again, failure to post homework results in a ZERO.
Mr. Iorio, do not forget to come to detention.

Yes, i agree that the knight was on target with his answer. Women like to have power over men. While they are dating, the man will do anything to try to win the woman's hand. Women like the feeling of power that they hold over men, making them do anything they desire. However, after they are married things begin to change. The man now holds all of the power and the women is expected to do anything he wants. If women had self same sovereignty they would always be in control and they would never give the power to the man. GO WOMEN!
Yes, I agree, women like to obtain power in the relationship. Although most of the time the man thinks he is in control, it is usually opposite. Woman have very powerful ways of gaining possession and being in charge of things they want.
I agree like my fellow students, because women as Kat DeLuna says, like to "Run the Show." They want to be equal to men, but the men think they run the show. Its all crazy. It's a struggle for power and who's in control.
Yes, I believe that the knight is on target with the answer that women most desire "self-same sovereignty." As we discussed on the previous blog question, women want to have men who will stand by them forever and love them. When woman and man are having relationship, woman tends to be a princess. Woman wants to control her man and always hopes her man to do whatever she wants. Also, I think men tend to follow their women as they used follow their mothers when they were young and that attracts women since women can control everything.
Therefore, I believe the knight would not have to die.
Great job girls!
I agree.......to a certain extent. I think that women like to be their own boss most of the time. I also think that there are times when they want their mate to take charge and make them feel safe and protected. But I'm old......what do I know?:)
