5.9  What do you think about the irony in Federingo's choice to feed his love the bird?

I found it very ironic how all Federingo wanted was to have Monna be happy and impressed by him.  Yet all he needed to do was to give her his falcon to save her sons life, however Federingo thought it would be more important for Monna to have a great meal.  If Federingo knew that she wanted the falcon there is no doubt that he would have given it to her in a second.  Yet he wanted to impress her, when really she did not want to be impressed.  Its a sad story and it got me really mad that all he had to do was give Monna the falcon and her son would be healed.

6.7  Do you agreee with Madonna's case in cheating with her husband or do you think she was wrong?

In a perfect world no-one would cheat on their significant other and if you married someone you would be faithful to that person only.  However as this story shows we do not live in a perfect world.  Monna decided to sleep with another man because she was in love with him, not because he was "really good looking" or because she just needed another man.  In that case it could be understandable why she would cheat on him.  She also has a good argument as to why she did it.  She always "pleases" her man, and tries her hardest to make him happy, and all she wanted was to be with the one she loved, which is understandable to a degree.  I agree with Madonna's case and the only reason why i do is because she says she is in love with the person she cheated on her husband with.
