Some thoughts
So Wednesday we talked about the oppressed: dominant and subordinate. I would like to say that personally I feel that I am a subordinate individual because I have two major characteristics. I am a minority Latina and a woman. I had a conversation with my boyfriend today and I feel like a lot of the times that I talk about something he usually ends up having the last word in the conversation. I don't mean to say we have a bad relationship or that he is the one in control of the relationship I just saw how this whole concept of being a subordinate fell into place in front of my eyes and I was just awed and I could not say anything about it. BUT! This realization has just encouraged me to speak my mind more and bring to light more of these amazing socialization realities that happen every day.
