Discussion 2

I would like to really discuss the chapter of Feminism is for Everybody. This was a remarkably interesting read. Women were not allowed to even breathe without a man telling her to do so. Women had to obey and not speak up or fight for their right and become workers of society. The fact that they used religion as a weapon against women was ridiculous. I was not surprised to find out that it was white women to start the fight for equal rights. Back then Black women were not even allowed in the same areas as white women or white people. Feminism was not for everyone back in the day. when is come to reading the article of sex and gender it is more When it comes to sex and gender 101 it is a more progressive article. I feel that there will be a brighter future where gender and sex will not exist. That we will simply be known as a human with a heart and purpose. There are intersex people who were born with both parts, and it is not fair to force them into a box. Gender identity is someone who identifies as one gender or another. It does not matter if they were born female, male, or intersex. Then there is gender expression, which is when some express themselves with different looks, hairstyles, clothing. Then there is sexual orientation which is a spectrum within itself, people like what they like and everyone should not be put in a box.

    Hi Natasha, I enjoyed reading your post! I think that it’s great that you pointed out how stuff was before feminism. Often we forget how horrible was the women’s situation before, and the progress that has been made. Although the progress has been very evident and we are in a better condition now, it is important to keep fighting for equality.

    The post will automatically tell us you are the author and we don’t need that extra title. This post doesn’t address the questions posed in the discussion prompt, so it looks more like a reading reflection. Please note the differences in the two assignments.
