Have you ever had a time when you felt labeled or pre-judged just because of your gender?
Well, I have. I remember in middle school when I wanted to play football with my male friends and they responded, “You can’t play football, you’re a girl!” That was the first time I ever felt unequal to a man. Just because I am a girl, I don’t have the ability to play or attempt a certain sport? No, I don’t think so….
I am a
female freshman Stevenson University and currently majoring in nursing, and so is my partner author
on this blog all about feminism.
“Society deals with gender in a way that, on balance, harms women.” a quote found on Finally, A Feminism 101 Blog.
Think about this statement. There is nothing but truth to it!
No, I’m not a pro on the feminism topic. I’m still in the process of learning more and more about feminism. This blog hits the tip of the iceberg of the different challenges women my age face, because of the fact that we, females, aren’t always viewed as “equal” to men. I will be including my personal experiences with feminism, as well as facts and statistics.
The existence of this blog is extremely important because there are fundamental inequalities and double standards between men and women and they should be addressed. I’m sure a lot of other college students out there either have or are on their way to experience some type of experience where someone put’s them down just because of your gender. You’re not alone!
