I was until college when I learn that I am a feminist. I took a pasioned man that saw in his students feminist waiting for that little extra push to be the best men and women they can be. Maybe is because I want to go against all those roles society specially my culture has set up for women. I don’t wear pink at all, I feel that pink has become a symbol or a way to mark women. I say pink is for girls. Girls need to be protected and protection means to relie on someon else.I have caught myself thinking like a me too feminist. I know it’s not always the correct way to do things but, that feeling I get when I show a man that I am just as good as he is, is great. Is not just to probe them wrong it si also to probe to myself that the fact that I am a female does not make me inferior. I am pro- family planing,abortion, gay marriage, stay home dads,and I would have voted for the first woman president. This is Me and this is what I believe. I am glad that I have been given something that friends and other women haven’t received LIBERTY to chose, to make decisions to please no body but myself. I promise myself that I will advice and pass on my experiences to young girls, and help those girls that are today in the possition I was one day.Isn’t that what feminism is all about? I believe that adpiting a more feminsit ideology is easy but actually practicing it is challengin. I’m up for the challenge!
