A Woman's Worth
For my independant reading project I selected books that have to do with women and the hardships they face. Which brings me to my question: Why is there so much pressure put on women? The image that today's society has created for women is they have to keep their good looks, slim figure, all the while raising children, maintaining a household, and holding down a job. But it seems to me that women get hit the hardest with problems that effect them emotionally and spirtually and yet, society expects them to hold their ground and simply just "get over it".

I'm so happy you're doing this topic! =). So many people these days think that women are seen as equal in society, and that we've moved on since the major feminist decade, when in actuality, we (both men and women) still have a lot of improvements to make to reach equality.
I look forward to reading your entries, and discussing this with you, and everyone else in the class (though I'm not your official reader)!
