Question:

Do you agree or disagree with this quote about Gulliver's Travels?

"Swift was a neurotic who exhibited childish hatred toward women and mankind, and the fear of filth?''

Please explain your answer


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I disagree. Swift wrote a satire, maybe some people are reading word by word of what he wrote and missing the irony. He is critical of the British political system and politicians in general, not of women and mankind.
