Isaac- Compare Satrapi's Family to Moraga's
I didn't think both of their relationships with their families really matched up. Satrapi had a relationship with her parents that was built on love and support despite mistakes. Moraga, while having a questionably good relationship with the female members of her family seemed to have a hostile relationship with the males in her family. I don't really know whether to take this as the product of the patriarichy or her insecurity with the opposite gender because of her sexuality. Satrapi's relationship with her parents had nothing to do with conflict of gender roles but conflict with gender roles of the greater society. Since her parents did not contribute to this conflict but rather were in support of what Satrapi wished to do this was not a conflict of their relationship.
