My name is Emily Calhoun, a current freshman at OU and PR major. With this blog site I will attempt to give in full details my thoughts and ideas relating to women's studies. Although I am not a women studies major, a western culture credit was indeed needed for me to graduate. As i sifted through my options on enroll.ou.edu, my eyes fell upon Intro to Women's Studies as a possible choice. As I weighed my options, I considered the fact that although being a female and knowing a lot about my gender from personal experience, I have never really delved into learning about the history or current controversies of my gender. That is when I decided this would be the course for me. I do not currently consider myself to be a die hard feminist but as I learn more on this subject...my opinion could very well change. I hope to keep my blog as open and truthful as possible. So... if you happen to agree or disagree....feel free to leave a comment :)
Questions I hope to be answered:
1) What really is a Feminist?
2) Am I a Feminist?
3) Where did the superficial stereotype of women originate?
4) Have we or how do we overcome it?
5) Will women ever be considered as equals among men? How far off are we or are we already there?
Hope you have a fabulous week :)
