If you mean Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 (My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun) - Shakespeare does not insult his mistress anywhere in this sonnet.
The plain sense of the sonnet is that Shakespeare is saying: 'Other poets write about girlfriends with skin whiter than snow, lips redder than coral, and voices sweeter than music: but my girlfriend is better than that.'
If your teacher thinks that Sonnet 130 insults the woman it is written about - then your teacher should not be teaching poetry (any more than an Intelligent Design advocate should be teaching Biology).

Why shakespeare is called a sonneteer?
The Art of the Shakespearean SonnetThe sonnet is a traditionally rigid poetic form featuring fourteen lines with rhyme, meter, and logical structure. The form was first developed in Italy during the High Middle Ages, with such well-known figures as Dante Alighieri putting it to use. But the most famous sonneteer of that time was Francesco Petrarca, and it is after him that the Italian sonnet got its name. The Petrarchan sonnet's fourteen lines are divided into an octave (eight lines) and a sestet (six lines), with the sestet responding to some proposition introduced in the octave. The rhyme scheme varied somewhat, but typically featured no more than four or five rhymes, for example abbaabba cdecde.Thomas Wyatt introduced the sonnet form into the English language in the early 16th century. Although Wyatt stuck to Petrarchan conventions, the form soon evolved into a specifically English one, and it was used by a good number of Renaissance poets - including Shakespeare. In fact, the English sonnet is often referred to as the Shakespearean sonnet for the same reason the Italian sonnet is often named after Petrarch. It is also sometimes referred to as the Elizabethan sonnet, after the era during which it took shape.The Shakespearean sonnet is distinct from the Petrarchan sonnet in a number of ways. First, the octave-sestet division is replaced by a quatrain-couplet division, with three quatrains of four lines each followed by a closing two-line couplet. The rhyme scheme of a traditional Shakespearean sonnet is abab cdcd efef gg, increasing the total number of rhymes to seven. The meter is iambic pentameter, five feet of two syllables each (ten syllables total per line), where each foot is normally an iamb consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. Finally, the logical structure of a Shakespearean sonnet parallels that of the Petrarchan to a certain extent, in that the third quatrain sometimes introduces a twist on the theme of the preceding two; but it is the distinctive couplet that carries the pop, normally delivering a great overarching message or a deeply insightful thought.

Why does Pablo Neruda fill Sonnet 17 with images of darkness and shadow?
Because it's a poem about a love that cannot be exposed to the broad light of day. It begins with a conditional negative statement, "I do not love you as if..." explaining how the love is unlike any bright flashy thing that sparkles when interacting with the light, that is exposed for anyone to wonder at and admire. (This recalls Shakespeare's sonnet "My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun...") Over the next 9 lines of the sonnet Neruda lists ways in which his love is dark, internalised, compressed, earthy,natural, always imminent but never manifest, private and unique. in Chinese philosophy Yin and Yang are 2 complementary principles. Yang is positive bright and masculine - like the love described in the first 2 lines of the sonnet - Yin is negative, dark and feminine. The interaction of Yin and Yang is thought to maintain the harmony of the universe. Neruda loves the Yin quality of his beloved because it provides a balance that allows him to achieve harmony and wholeness. This is signalled in the last 2 lines where the speaker and his beloved merge as one inseparable being.
