A Million

I feel that this story was extremely weird. This story influenced me to come to realize that love and lust are two completely different things. In the last page of the story, the author noted that your “lip, hips, hands, and genitals are only receiving and transmitting impulses”. The brain knows and feels love. When you think of love, it is about the feeling you encounter inside of you. It’s not about the sexual attraction you feel towards that person. You can be sexually attracted to multiple people, but that doesn’t mean its love. This story also informed me that there are a plethora of transgender individuals living among us. You would never really know someone’s exact gender.  In the story Dora was a transgender. Although everyone perceived her as a female, she was really a male. She had a hips, breasts and even a vagina. Due to no one knowing her true gender made things really easy for her. Not only did it make it easier for her, but it also did not interfere with her dancing. When I read that part of the story, it made me realize how cruel and evil humans can be. For instance, when someone is transgender they seem to be looked down upon within our society. Although this story was extremely weird, it was also kind of fascinating. It informed me that lust and love are two completely different things. Not only did it inform me that love and lust are two different things, but it also opened up my eyes about the transgender community.

When it changed

 

I found this story Very interesting. The main thing about this story I like is how the ladies didn’t need the men on the planet of Whileaway. I find this interesting because in our society, males and females are not equal. When you look in the past, you can see that women was considered the property of a man. Females had no rights in America. Females couldn’t vote till the 19 Amendment which was ratified 1920. Most women stayed home and took care of the house. Currently Ladies only made 77 Percent of each dollar that men earn. This story fascinated me because it showed how women are more superior on this planet. Another thing that was fascinating about this story was that same sex marriage was normal on this planet. On the planet of Whileaway it was normal for females to insist of same sex marriage. Same sex marriage is one of the most controversial topics in America. Some people feel as if same sex marriage is wrong. I feel as if same sex marriage is ok. If someone is happy with the same sex, then I feel as if they should be able to get married just like any other couple. This story was very interesting because I like how women was independent on this planet.
