WEEK 16: Sonnets 18-20

This week we read Shakespeare's sonnets `18-20, which some people believe is Shakespeare professing his love to a young man which I don't agree with. I believe that this week doesn't support the way women were treated in the Renaissance era because usually men didn't have to woe a woman their father were the ones they needed to woe. Women were treated like a product that was negotiated as business transactions between families.
