My perspective has definitely changed since the beginning of this class. If I’m being completely honest I was interested in this class. This is my last semester so I guess I’m just eager to finish. But as the class continued I really started to actually learn things. More importantly as a female I’ve learned more about myself and my body.
One of the most important topics that I will be taking away from this class is acceptance. I know that wasn’t entirely what our lectures were about but throughout the course we’ve read about people with different races and sexuality. We all know that discrimination is a thing and happens often but that doesn’t make it right.
The format of this class really helped me to. In this class we have to write our responses and respond to our classmates. I think this was very helpful for me. It helped me not only view the discussion from my point but my classmates too. And because this class had a lot to do with race and gender, it was really interesting that we had people from different places to give a perspective. I found it ironic how we all may come from different places and grew up with different traditions but for the most part we all go through similar things.
