Depending on what you take away from the ending, it's either a cool open-ended approach to an ending OR kind of insulting. I read a lot into stuff (symbolism, allegories, etc), so based on that and other imagery and allusions made in the book, I found the ending a little insulting and kind of sexist, but I can see other readers NOT coming away with that reading.
