29 thoughts on “Short Story Review: “Only Daughter” by Sandra Cisneros”

Sandra Cisneros depicts herself as a male dominant family and progressive intelligent woman in society, in her short memoir "Only daughter". Despite the spread of gender discrimination in the community, she thinks that she should be interested in male boss. But despite her belief in the importance of women's education, Cisneros does not empower women, feminists, or independent women. In fact, on the contrary she imposed restraint and bound her by bending to her own pressure.

It seems to be a wise and independent movement, but her father may say that education at Cisneros is wasting. In the memoir, the reader did not see Cisneros emerge from the power to suppress her as a woman. Instead, Sisneros oppressed himself as she clearly and desperately approved her father - patriarch

Cisneros believes that she deserves respect for her father, but that is not the case. Instead, Sisneros passively spent the life she dealt with. In fact, Cisneros does nothing for himself other than to choose to learn English. Even if she decided to concentrate on English, it seemed to be a slanderous rebellion against her father who did not speak a small confrontation, English. Cisneros gently laughed at himself, which allowed me to embroider my small poems and stories freely, while my father did not interrupt you, "You are writing what ? "

It only gets worse. Cisneros continues to acknowledge that "everything she wrote is for obtaining [father's approval]." As the only daughter of her family, Cisneros is a minority and she represents the world. Every woman her family member already thought she was in contact with her. Her father did not intend to challenge the meaning of Spanish. The future of the world and gender equality are on the shoulder of Cisneros, and every interaction makes her feel unevaluated, as she is a woman, ignored or rejected. Sisneros was able to say it when her father wanted to call her as his son. She would have actively noticed writing and investing new, more considerate audience. However, she did not take any measures to dispute her position and nothing could be respected. She embodies a passive female prototype that she claims to resist, so Sisneros is a loser.
