[|No woman no cry]

==****Gender Prejudice is something that is seen through out Janie's life. I decided to choose this subject because I have seen it many times in my life and I can relate to it. One perfect example is when my mother had barely divorced my father. Everything seemed to happen so fast that no one ever expected it. When it happened all of our relatives believed my mother was not going to be able to move forward with her life. They put her down by saying she was a woman and she wasn't going to get over the whole situation. What she did was ingnored it all. She pulled her self together and showed her strength to us her children who admired her so much. She proved everyone wrong and now we are a great family who has stuck together through the thick and thin. Another example i see in my life of gender prejudice is when the question about who is better men or woman comes up. Not only do i see it when guys begin to express their opinions but also when the girls discuss it too. The talk goes on and on and it will never end, but the point is that we are both equal and here to help each other. Us girls need guys just as bad as they need us. So there is no point to arguing who is better because it gets us absolutley no where. What I'm really trying to say is that we all need to seriously mature some time because i'm tired of hearing it and what I do about it is just ignore and it would be good if we could all do that. It's actually fun to here I can't do things from guys and proving them wrong in their faces. :)This also relates about a time where my best friend and i walked into our math class and everyone there believed we would never make it in there. They would diss on how low our grades were going to be and that we should just drop the class as soon as we walked in, but what my friend and I did was kept our grades on the down low and would fool all the guys when they would ask about our grades. So later on they found out because our teacher gave a us an award on the highest grade in the class with more than 100%.That shut them up because they began judging us because of our gender and the type of girls we were which they said we were "party girls". All of these incidents tie back to the book because i saw some happen and i actually lived through others and it hasn't done anything bad to me but has opened my eyes to what this world is about. I can definately say that even though I am a girl i can do many things that a man can do but I'm not here to brag but to make my point that we are all equal in every way.****==
