"Oppression" by Marilyn Frye

     What I got from the article "Oppression" by Marilyn Frye is that we use the word oppression improperly. She explains that most people think oppression's "scope includes any and all human experience of limitation or suffering, no matter the cause, degree or consequence". She relates this to men's inability to feel or be sensitive.  Frye also explains when it comes to the oppression of women, we do not look at the topic in a macroscopic view as she puts it. We delve to deep into the topic and tend to over look a lot of broad aspects.
     I feel as though some of her examples are a little farfetched. The biggest turn off to the article for me was towards the end when she said that men opening the door for women is oppressive. Has a man ever said that a woman was incapable of opening a door? Why can't it be that a man is trying to be a gentleman by opening the door. What if the women feels like she shouldn't have to open the door, therefor the women is being the oppressor? 
     Even though there are a few obscure ideas to me in the article, I agree with Frye in the fact that most people do not understand the true meaning of the word oppression. I think most people need to learn the true meaning and related topics in order to be able to use the word.
