Women

I don't really understand the prompt : what women and mens movements do you identify with?and why? I did some research about women and mens movements. I found one called Menininst this is a global organization that Believe in and support the Feminist principles of womans political, social , and economic equality. I have never been a huge feminist nor had I ever sided with either gender, however I am comfortable and confident with my gender. I have never had any animosity towards people who are gay or lesbian. I have always been considerate of other peoples choices, I also am friends with a significant amount of people who's choose a different sex than what they would usually be intended. I don't really have a reason why I choose this movement. As I researched I found a lot of one sided organizations that had a lot of hate letters and opinions that were harsh and very close minded to the other gender. After reading more about this movement I really appreciated what the men had to say and why they choose this. It was very thoughtful and I think a lot of women who are strong feminist would really enjoy reading about this. This impacted me in a way that I haunt really felt before. Taking this class has really helped me notice little things about the way people communicate. Before this blog prompt I would have never considered researching this after a little research Iv really come to understand how important this topic is to alot of people. I feel like I can relate to others in more opened ways now , I also think this is a great topic to look more into seeings that the orginization I am working with, the white house project , has alot do with this concern and community.
