Snapshot 1

it is very interesting to think about how many people would think of themselves differently and even change as people if they thought more about their own gender identity and sexuality. I find it very likely that most people would not think of themselves as solidly one gender or their cis gender or 100% straight if they did not have an ever-present social pressure to box them into the one they were assigned at birth. It’s also worth noting that this pressure and “boxing in” of sexual identity and gender is heavily related to living in a colonized and oppressive society, and that it is just a few of many freedoms that have been taken away from many cultures and peoples.

    People would think themselves differently because of how gender plays a role. Even though at this point you’re born who you’re as birth you couldn’t change your gender and if you’re born as a girl you wouldn’t have that much opportunity as the boy how the society see’s it. There is as much freedom taken away in them too. And Native American’s for them just because of their skin color also take their freedom away.
