### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I LOVE SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR
*by B***N on July 17, 2013*

There are a small amount of reviews that I see and that troubles me. This new translation is a golden opportunity to show more precisely what is wrong with how men subjugate women. Also too one has to wonder how it can be that the High Priestess of Feminism was so willing to be subject to Sartre....what a contradiction. I have read that in a interview Sartre regularly lied to Simone to keep her content while he participated in his "other" interests. I think that Sartre was originally in the right place at the right time and since Simone has no use for the idea of God anymore and for a conventional relationship with men (marriage), Sartre (the master philosopher) fit the bill to fill the void. Simone said their love together transcended the understanding of everyone. How convenient. In any event, I wonder if secretly she observed what was wrong with this relationship and maybe that helped fuel The Second Sex. I think Sartre was a very smart selfish troll of a man. And if the heartache of his "rolls in the hay" with other women fueled The Second Sex......that breaks my heart too. It is commonplace that we see what is wrong with the world around us more clearly by looking in our own mirror. I am 45 now. I read the Parshley edition when I was 17 and 18 years old and at that time I was enormously intrigued by women. And The Second Sex blew my mind. And now I care so much about Simone that I have read "Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter" and am now reading "The Prime of Life". I want to follow her life. And I want to know why she felt she had to stay so close to that selfish Sartre. Simone De Beauvoir is truly my hero. I think of her all the time. And by the way, I am a man.
