week seven

Growing up my parent’s way of letting me do something "fun" was to either behave well or clean. Still they do that. Ever since I could remember I had to do all the cleaning that "a girl is supposed to do." For example, washing the dishes, making food, keeping the house clean and making sure everyone has clean clothes to wear (among other things). So I basically grew up doing all of these things and i still do all those things. Today’s society is a little different from how it used to be 50+ years ago. Yes, now woman can vote, work and do anything that they set their mind too. BUT, there is still discrimination in the types of jobs that woman can do and some man are still old fashion and don’t allow their wives to work. Looking back, women were not able to do half of the things that we do now, such as voting.

                The chores that woman have to do are so old fashion and need to change. I mean why a girl can’t go outside and mow the yard or change the oil in her car. We are capable to do that and so many other things. But I think that not a lot of women choose to put themselves out because there are people that can be very judgmental and will criticize them. I also think that not a lot of woman do “manly things” because we were raced that way, “no you wash the dishes and your brother can wash the car”. I mean come on! Were all the same, yes men are physically stronger then woman, but woman are smarter than man. So if we struggle figuring out how to do something we will figure out another way to do it and if that way doesn’t work we will keep trying and trying but we won’t give up until we get it done.

                Overall, woman are powerful human being that can do ANYTHING, even though there may be a lot of people that still think old fashion and believe that we cant. That doesn’t put us down it just gives us and extra push to try harder to prove those people wrong!
