The vignette that made the strongest impression on me is the Boys & Girls vignette (page 8). The central idea of this vignette is essentially about how boys and girls live in separate worlds the boys in their universe and the girls in their own universe. It’s also about wanting a friend who can truly understand you to the point where you wouldn’t have to explain your jokes and you can tell all your secrets to. The theme of this vignette is Family, Friendship, identity, as for why it resonates with me it’s because she mentions in the story you can’t pick your siblings you just get them and their just your responsibility and as someone with siblings I agree with that wholeheartedly you don’t choose your siblings you just get them and you have to accept them for who they are no matter what because at the end of the day they’re your family

Hello Piere,
Thank you for sharing your post with us. It was interesting and well organized. It also made a strong impression on me and made me think about several topics at the same time. It is also something I like the most about the reading, how it makes us think deep about really important issues such as gender and identity, love, family. I do agree with you when you mention that we don’t choose our family or siblings as it is also mentioned in the reading. Whatever they do, at the end of the day they are our family which is the most important thing in the planet.
