" Simone de Bouvier"? You mean Simone de Beauvoir...

BTW, the English version was a very truncated one. I read the whole original work, in the original French, when I was in my early twenties. Many later feminists totally ignored her complex Existentialist interpretation and oversimplified it.

I also had a very supportive father who never made me feel I was inferior to boys, there are a lot of those around, enough with the generalisations about men being the enemy.
