“A Day with Feminism”
A Day with Feminism is a day that we are living today, all people are created equal regardless of their skin, race, gender or character. I think we are so blessed to live in a country were we all have the same opportunity to become somebody. Some many people are allowed to express their-selves. Women have the right to choose to have an abortion or not. Without feminism women would be forced to keep a child they couldn’t take care of. The only problem that I would have with feminism is that gay people would be able to have legalized gay marriage in all fifty states. I think that would cause alot of problems because alot of people would be incomfortable with this. I think that it would have to be a graudual thing to happen if it did happen.

“Unequal A Global Perspective on Women Under the Law”
The law against the women should be looked at in detail. The governments should look at the interests of the women and, stop discriminating against women. The issue of property is very simple to me. If a person father or mother owns the land then their children should inherit the land regardless of their citizenship. I think that the government is always trying to found way to make it harder for people to own their own land. They put high taxes on the land that many of the people who own the land cant pay.

“Betrayed by the Angel”
I thought that this article was very strange. I didn’t understand why the lady would tell the man that was raping her that she thought his penis was big. She should have been trying to get him off of her. But I guess I cant judge a book by it’s cover because I wasn’t in her situation. I think that as a young girl she was mislead. I say this because as a child she was taught to be such a good lady full of grace, politeness ,and at the same time she wasn’t taught that she should fight back. Now, today she has to live with what that man did to her. Maybe, if she would have fought back or was taught that it’s not ok to let strangers into your apartment that terrible thing wouldn’t have happen to her.

“The Path of the Red and Black Ink”
This was the hardest article I ever read. I really didn’t understand it that much. I know that the author was talking about storytelling, artwork and how each culture view is about. But, I don’t understand how it relates to women studies at all. I tried to answer all the question to the best of my knowledge.

“A Black women Took My Job”
I think that society is changing for the better good. I know that’s it’s hard for alot of men who were grow up seeing their father being the breadwinner. And now as a grown men they think that they should be the breadwinner. This article really brings out the old myth of how men would make all the money to provide for the family while the wife stay at home and care for the family. Also, it discuss the new ways in which women are making a change to the old myths. I am glad that more women are standing up and making a change for a new and better life.

“The Myth of the Pefect Mother”
I really enjoyed this reading because it discuss how society view mothers today.There are several challenges that a mother must complete each and everyday. Being a mother takes time and effort it doesn’t just happen over night.Some many mothers today have to struggle with having a balance in their lives. I know growing up I know it was hard for my mother she would have to work two jobs,so that me and my siblings could be taken care of. And when a person is working two jobs it’s kind of hard to have a life with your family. I think that there are alot of mother who try there very best to be the perfect mother but at the end of the day she has to realize that she is only human. Also mothers have to juggle with their part-time or full time job which takes a lot out of them. At the same time they are pressured to be a good mother. Mothers have to learn to not stress out, lose their minds while during their duties as a mother. By having a little bit of help the mothers could have more quality time to spend with their family,they can relax, stop running around like some lunatics,and have a better marriage.
