It is interesting, but the essay questions pertaining to it were not.

One dealt with the room as a presentation of the destructive effect of the patriarchal society on women and the other one dealt with treating it as Gilman's autobiography. Not very appealing to me.
Instead I'm dealing with the creepy old house from 'The Fall of the House of Usher'. XP

The destructive effect of the patriarchal society on women sounds interesting but it also sounds pretty sexist, so I don't think I'd do it either.
The Fall of the House of Usher is good. :U

Ahahaha don't worry I'm not really either I just thought the topic was interesting sounding. My sister took a Women's Studies class though in her college years and she loved it. <3
So what's your discussion question or..essay topic about for The Fall of the House of Usher?

Discuss the symbolic meaning of the house in Poe's story "The Fall of the House of Usher".
Pretty open-ended and it only has to be 500 words. XD
