In Class Interview.
During this week's interview I entertained the question on whether or not "Feminism" was considered a dirty word. Interviewee stated that she had not considered that Feminism was indeed a dirty word before taking this class. Prior she assumed Feminism was the fight against gender inequality though equalization - as in women just want the same rights and social status as men. As the semester progressed she discovered that feminism is now given a bad connotation by popular belief. People now get the wrong idea about feminism, it's becoming more of a coinage term than an actual movement. She ended that she had a friend who was taking a women studies class at Fresno City College and when the professor asked if anyone in this room was a feminist the friend who was a male rose his hand and received looks of disdain from the feminist females in the room. She believes that Feminism doesn't necessarily mean equal to men, but rather to surpass the gender entirely.
