Simon de Beauvoir's incisive observation, "He is the Subject, she is the Other" paves the way for the pivotal issue of the women's self in the feminist movement. Woman as the 'Other' is equated to the non-subject, the non-agent and ultimately the mere body. Woman has been systematically subjugated to varied forms of oppression.
