Be it women or men it is always important to tell the truth in an objective and unbiased way. Literary figures like Charlotte Brontë will be happy to know that she is still a subject of study nowadays.
No body has the whole truth and subjectivity plays always a part. I meant by objectivity the fact that a critic puts aside personal judgments when dealing with a work of art.
