First Blog

Hi, first blog! My other was an "About me Section" bummer, you would think that after having an online journal I would have an idea of how this whole thing works.... I am a person who is open to all kinds of music the oldest the music the better, the newest the music the most entertaining. I hate labeling myself as anything and I think my name is enough of a label. I love reading and writing, writing is the only way I feel I can warn people about things that are going around the world, in one perfect sentence. And you might all soon notice I HATE being confused, the ironic thing is I hate being told what to do but love being told exactly what to write
The topic I will be blogging about is the rhetoric of gender. When I saw this I knew certainly what my first blog would be about, equality and informative. When referring to this topic I'm going to try to add a lot of cultural beliefs on how a certain culture expects a woman to talk versus a man. As well, as to what society expects from the speech and language of a man versus a women. I chose this topic not because Im a feminist but certainly because there is a lot of discrimination put into women about the way they should present themselves into society and language is certainly something that everyone notices.
One of the goals that I have for this class is to be able to manage and sort out my thoughts into an essay.Sometimes I have so many good ideas that I just write them everywhere in my paper, in hope of not loosing a good point. I want to manage my ideas and express more of a fact in a paper than an opinion.I see writing as something fun and when Im given a topic that is not of my interest I tend to do my worst job. I never give my 100%, or so I 've been told by my teachers, because apparently I try to keep a tough look and "act stupid" so my goal for this class is to give it my 100% and show it as well.
