The play in class was really good. I think it was really funny how Laurie changed the norm to smaller boobs. Women in society do follow what society thinks is beautiful or pretty. It sounded really weird to hear that some one would want to change their self to what society likes. It sounded so absurd for the girl to want to change herself. The funny party was also how she said she wanted to be a hooter girls, because their shirts come to the naval. We all know hooter girls have big breast and wear tight fitting shirts. It actually made a lot of sense. Why would women change their boobs so they could be bigger? I guess it does not really seem that bad when you hear it or let alone sound stupid when you see it? Flipping the script made it seem ridiculous, which it really is. I like how she made that come together. It flowed really well. It was an all together great play. I always knew getting plastic surgery was not what women should do, but I never really put a lot of thought in to it. Now that I saw the play, I actually feel like it sounds really stupid to do such a thing. All women are beautiful just the way they are. We as women should not change for anybody and we should not want to. Everyone should come to a place where they find their own inner beauty. Every woman is beautiful in their own way. I wish they would realize it. People put this set idea in their head of what beauty really is and try to change their image to what that is. There needs to be a change. I think they should do commercials like the play Laurie created to let women know what they are doing sounds really superficial. Superficial is not a role women should strive to be. Natural beauty is the best beauty. When you do not change anything about yourself, that is when you look the prettiest. All women need to know this. Confidence is key and that is all you need in order to feel beautiful. For you to get surgery to better your personal look is not right. Surgery is for a medical purposes only not a personal choice. I do not necessarily consider myself a feminist, but I have of course always believed that women are just as capable of men. I feel that history has shown that woman bear the same intelligence and capabilities that men do. We should have a mind of our own and do things for us. Every women should stay just how they were made.

Last class was very interesting when we had to put ourselves in the Arab Muslim’s position. It was kind of an eye opener in one way, but I do not agree with the basis of the lecture. I understand why the Arabs Muslims have resentment toward us Americans, because we are trying to control their oil in their country. I never really looked at it as the oil being in their country, therefore they should control it. We are over there fighting an unnecessary war, but we can not just pull out or we would put ourselves in danger. The people in the Middle East still are holding grudges, so its going to be a while before we all come to an understanding. I do not think that it is a Christian invasion whatsoever. What does religion have to do with anything? Yes, some Christians go over to preach the word of God, but that has nothing to do with the war like I said before. I do not think the Arab Muslims think that we are trying to take over with our religion. Since when has that been a topic of discussion. Yes, the United States is a Christian nation, but religion is not a factor. It sounds really absurd. I did not realize that he was saying they see it as a Christian invasion, because I do not agree. I really thought he was just saying to put our feet in their shoes so we can see how they feel about the war and us trying to control their oil. Also, I thought it was about how they feel like they are helpless against such a strong country like the United States of America. I guess I was lost through out the whole lecture. I thought he was saying something else instead of the whole Christian invasion thing. The United States does not agree with the Arab's religion, Muslim, but nobody is trying to turn their nation into a Christian nation. I know that for sure. The war is strictly business. No religion is involved.He did have a valid point for us to put ourselves in some one else’s position, so we can try to feel how they do. I totally understand the point he was trying to make, but he did not make sense when he put religion in it. I kind of understand how the Arab people feel now especially after those videos we watched. Some of the soldiers are out of control doing those unnecessary things to the Middle Eastern people. They should not have to be treated horribly. They are also trying to live their lives and make it, but it is nearly impossible when their country is in the middle of a war.

Yes, I agree that the census can be really confusing. It puts o\too many options and rules about race. Some people really do not know what to write on the form, so they do not fill it out at all. The census having negro as an option on the form is absurd. I really think that they do not have to go that far to generalize people of "color". I understand some people from back in the day will not choose African-American or Black but they need to deal with it. We have to stop trying to be politically correct all the time. What does that statement mean? Some people say it means that it will not offend people, but there will always be somebody who will get offended. Some people do not like people to call them black and some African-American. We really can eliminate the negro part out of the census, because that is kind of an offensive word for majority of people now and days. Only older folks like to use the word Negro when they are talking about themselves. It is not a term many black people call themselves. I do realize why the census puts so many nationalities/ race. People are always complaining about people calling them the wrong race or not calling them their specific race. We all really have to grow up and limit the names that different races call themselves. It should be one name each race has to limit the confusing thing called the census. Black people do not need to have the selection of choosing to be African-American, Negro, or Black. People need to choose the best way to describe their selves on the census. Then again, some people like to choose all their races. Some people are half Asian half European. Some people are half Italian half Brazilian. That could be a little confusing for that person, because they do not really no what to choose on the census. Race and Ethnicity are probably the most confusing words to understand. Personally, I get confused on the two terms myself. Some people do not even bother to fill out the census, because it is too confusing and they do not know what to choose. I feel fifty fifty about the situation. On one hand, I would say there are too many choices to pick from on the census so they should limit it. Then again, some people might not feel it out if the race they call themselves is not on there. On the other I hand, I say they need to reduce the race and ethnicity choices on the census, because it only makes things more confusing. People start to think too hard about what they really are and go to deep into their roots.

I totally agree with most people for the most part. That is absurd and crazy. Why in the world would you ever cancel a prom on one couple and their choices. For one, that tells us a lot about what the school stands for. First of all, it was one couple who want to go together. If people did not know they were lesbians, they probably would have been allowed to go as "best friends" or something of that sort. The parents should really fight against what the school did to their children. They are people just like everybody else. They are probably one of the few who are open with their relationships. The school canceling the prom probably made the couple feel horrible and embarrassed or maybe they just did not care because the whole thought of it is ridiculous. Never in a million years would I think the gay controversy would go this far. Who is the school to tell you who you can like or not or who you can go to prom with or not? I guess if it was a private school it would be another conversation. The students should riot or sign a petition for the administration to stop this madness. I am really disappointed that people can not get over themselves and get over people liking the same sex. Maybe it is not what you think is right or what you believe in, but they are NOT you. They are accountable for themselves and nobody else. How would they feel if all of this was happening to them. They act like these kids were doing drugs or committed a murder. Even if the school did not agree with it why would they cancel it and ruin people's most memorable moment in high school. Prom is a very important part of high school. People prepare months or even a year in advance to make sure everything for their prom is perfect. Girls buy their expensive dresses. Boys buy their suits. For the school to just cancel the prom over something so minuscule blows my mind. Is this a joke or something? I kind of want to go to the head of the school and tell them what they are doing is stupid. Anyone who reads about this is probably saying in their heads are you serious? It seems like we are all in elementary school. People know the world has changed so much over the years. The United States is not the conservative country it used to be. It is a country based on freedom. The freedom to like whoever you want and love whoever you want. I hope the students of this school fight hard for this. This situation needs to be dealt with. Yes, the school has the authority to tell their students not to have prom, but that does not mean what they are saying is right. This issue should be brought to somebody over the school board. That poor couple is dealing with way too much out of a dumb situation. The school should give them a scholarship in honor of the foolishness that was done.

Yeah I do not think accepting the wrongs will make a difference in what the people did to the Native Americans. It was really a horrible thing to do, but right now we really can not change anything. What would we do? Would we give the Native Americans their land back? Would we apologize to every Native American we see for what was done wrong? No, we can only know what the people did to them was wrong. Nothing will ever change whether we all think if it was wrong or not. People are still going to go on with their every day lives. It was an unfortunate thing that was done, but what is done is done. The boy in class says he thinks it as survival of the fittest. I do not really think of it as survival of the fittest, because they both were not there. Some one came and took their land away from them. They had stronger weapons, so the Native Americans could not really fight back. That is not survival of the fittest. Survival of the fittest is when both of the people are there and fight for who keeps whatever.
Also, what they did to slaves were wrong. They took people from Africa and brought them to the Americas to work for them. That was a horrible thing too. People still do not seem to understand what the slaves went through. People really can not change what happened. I mean, it has progressed over the years but it still happened. It is kind of like the same situation of the Native Americans. Something really bad did happen, but there is nothing we can change about it. We as people can only do what we know is right. Whether one person or a million people came to a realization of what the Europeans did to the Native Americans was wrong, it would not change a thing. It only changes the mindset of those people. People will not give them back the land, because it would be utter chaos and plus the people who stole from them are dead. We are a new generation who recognized what some of our ancestors did was wrong. The only thing we can really do is acknowledge the wrongs and turn them into rights. The way we can change is to treat people the way they ought to be treated. Treat them as if they were you. Slavery still exists, but it has changed tremendously. Unfortunately, the Native Americans can never get back what was theirs because it is not something that can change. Maybe we could help the Native Americans that are still affected by what happened, but that is kind of impossible. That is like saying we need to help the people's family who were once slaves. These things can not happen. No matter how hard we want it to. It just can not. I wish we could go back in time and give the Native Americans their land back, but it is one of those things we have to live with. I give my deepest sympathy to the Native Americans and that is all I can give.
