Louise Colet's Version

yeah i liked this chapter. It was interesting to me how women and men were compared, " women scheme when they are weak, they lie out of fear. Men scheme when they are strong, they lie out of arrogance" haha i like that. The author also says that women focus on signs from a man that shows them character, men however, are more focused on physical characteristics which i find to be true in a sense as well. Then it goes on to tell how Flaubert would describe his time with his prostitutes, "I fired five shots into her," this explains what was earlier said about men talk about such things with little contempt and eagerness, as if we were describing the last meal we had, course by course.
