Women In Literature

My name is Nicolette Silva, but most people just call me Nicki. I am a female senior from the period 8 class of the 2011-2012 school year. Women in Literature is an awesome course that, as you can already tell from the course name, teaches about women and gender issues. It is a very fun class. Despite all the hard work, it is completely worth it in the end. We've gone over numerous topics such as feminism, gender roles, gender stereotypes, socially constructed terms, and gender equality. What I found the most interesting topic to be throughout the course was the gender stereotypes and socially constructed terms. Through all the papers, quizzes, and our final project, I was able to assess the gender stereotypes and socially constructed terms in depth and actually see how big of an issue it is today. I also enjoyed looking into how women are objectified in the media, and how it affects how women try to act and look. I've learned a lot about how women are to the world, because of how society portrays them. It is sad to see women treated this way, when we should be glorified for all that we as women do. This wiki will show my opinions and all that I believe.Enjoy! (: ======
