I have chosen to be in “Sex, Gender, and Sexuality” because I believe I can explain myself via this particular diagram.
I got an idea gender itself is very broaden and the characteristic that we carry is just a part of it.
I am a girl, by birth I am given the identity of a female. Like all other human beings, as I grew up, I started changing my behavior as well. The change was according to the environment I lived in.
Here I have characterized myself in 4 different roles. Me at work, with family, friends, and School.
My boss and my colleague at work find myself very quiet, as I am not very outspoken, and I don’t bother to talk in meetings and all unless it becomes necessary to. I am the youngest one at work, so I always feel I always have a place to learn from colleagues. I work with honesty and believe in work ethics.
With my friends, I am really outspoken, very soft-hearted and I trust them and always provide support and encouragement. I have a similar figure with my family members besides the fact I am more committed to my family. They are my greatest strength as well as weakness. I am always bold in front of them, as I take care of most of the family responsibility, either its financial or emotional support. But again, I am a bit of childish in front of my boyfriend. He treats me like a high school kid. And I can be worst in front of him. I think that’s because I am able to develop that comfort zone with him which I cannot in front of any other people.
It also true, I don’t express too much of my weakness to anyone. Especially when I am feeling bad and alone. I guess that’s how I have trained my mind
Similarly, when it comes to school, I am a very shy person to speak upfront but can easily communicate and I can say I am kind of organized and believe in discipline life.
