Personal Reflection Paper
My views of gender, gender roles, and gender equality have definitely been impacted by my life experiences. For example, I used to believe that gender only referred to male and female. Now, I believe gender refers to a spectrum. It ranges from female to male and anything in between. I also never realized how many gender roles were involved in my family while I was growing up.

That would mean that a Hispanic female gets paid way less than a white male. This is why I am all for feminism. Also, because, females and males are more similar than they are
