Think about how you feel about "Lady Pens". Why did it make you feel that way?
It said that I can feel like a typical women, that's what I got. I don't feel confrotable if I use this kind of pen because, one: What's the difference? Just the color? It will not make me feel more feminine...seriously.
And two: THE COLOR! I love green or blue... that means I'm not a girl? Come on...
What are some key points that Ellen talks about in terms of the women's movement and/or equality?
Women paid a lot for equality, now women are allowed to vote, can drive at night, wear pants and so on...
Did you find the clip funny or not? Why or why not?
Yes, it was really fun because I can reflect and think about how women have "change" since we are as equal as men in life. I can see that there is still people who think that doing this kind of products can make women more confident in their thoughts.Also I can laugh about how we can the same as men saying: this product is just for us! You can't use it! And women call this equality.

Questions 'bout Gender Roles
Do you see yourself as a typical man or woman?
In my country? No... Women in my country usually are the opposite. They are always using make up, dressing with colorful clothes, using sandals when there is a party, thinking about having boysfriends and so on. Unlike me, I don't like make up, I use confortable clothes no so colorful, I dislike sandals and I don't like to think about how can I find a boyfriend, I'll wait for it to come... someday, somehow! xD
What are the responsibilities of a father?
Either father and mother have to take care of their family and bring food home!
Are there any professions that have more men than women in your country?
Yes, Venezuelan Oil Industry...
Is it typical for women to join the military in your country?
Is not typical but it's normal.
Is it typical for men to be teachers in your country?
Again, is normal. There is a variety of workers, male and female.
If all women in the world disappeared, what would it be like?
Ahahahahaha... Caos! Men need a women to be calm, to be happy, to eat good food if they don't know how to cook, to have descendants, it depends.
Are men and women equal in their physical ability?
Sometimes yes, somethimes no. In my case, at home I'm doing what my brother is suppose to do to fix things like spotligths or things alike. Sometimes I can't do something hard and ask my brother to do it but I often try to do it before ask him. I like to play with electricity, cut the long branches of the trees, I also know how to do plumbing. I also don't like to much cooking but I can do it.
Anyone can have a diferent view of thinking, we have to decide: You think like the masess or try to be diferent. I decided to be diferent but I'm still a girl who think a little bit like others girls... sometimes!

Halloween~
Another year without celebrating this pagan and funny holiday. I don't celebrate halloween because in my country my family take me out of it telling me what's the real meaning of Halloween. If you want to know more here is a website that explain it all:
http://rcg.org/articles/totuh.html
In Vnzla, people celebrate it but no like in here, going out for trick or treating. Instead, they just make a big party and everyone dress up for it. Also they watch horror movies and them tell horror stories, some fake and some real horror stories. I don't like halloween because is just another day that people spend buying a lot of things that they just use one day and then throw into the garbage next day. Also, people say that in halloween some people go out and make sacrifice and a lot of bad things. I don't know if in Calgary that happens but in others countries like Mexico or Vnzla, it happens!
As I said, I dislike halloween but it's just my opinion.
Have a nice day!
PD: No pictures for today... D= Sorry!
