When it comes to privilege, I used to deny it and thought that I couldn’t have it because I didn’t have enough money or even the things I wanted. But I’ve experienced firsthand when it came to privilege. When I went to Mexico to see my family, they had something I didn’t have, and I had things they didn’t have. I had clothes, a house, food, and all this technology, and im allowed to do whatever I wanted. in comparison, they aren’t able to afford things they want or stuff that I even have. It made me think about what I have and that I’ve been somewhat privileged since I was a kid. But I felt like I could relate more to Marilyn Frye’s reading. For example, she stated that ” it’s often a requirement upon oppressed people that we smile and be cheerful. if we comply, we signal our docility and our acquiescence in our situation.” I come from a Mexican household, and there are certain things im not allowed to do, but my brother is. since he’s a man, they think he can take care of himself, and I won’t be able to if I hang out with some friends. My parent doesn’t let me go unless I have him around. My parent needs to see that it’s a new generation and women are capable of taking care of themselves. Some should be able to have the right to have fun and go with a man being around.
