    Throughout the whole chapter, one could easily be able to notice the discrimination these pachuca women received. Much like the discrimination that women not only in this country but all over the world still receive to this day. As well as the pachuca women, women today want to be provided with a sense of personal freedom and control. Another comparison is that women can feel like outsiders. The women then used the zoot-style to help them feel like they belong somewhere, to help them escape their feelings of feeling like an outsider in the US. The persona these pachucas created gave them an identity, this identity was nothing like their more traditional mothers, as Escobedo mentioned it sensed a belonging to “distinctly Mexican American subculture.”…

    Feminism is defined as, "the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men" yet all around women seem to be taking a step back from such "progress" they have so called "fought" for. Not only as a traditional Chicano male but as a Christian I believe that there are certain things a woman must and mustn't do. Feminists want to be seen equal as a man but can't live up to what they claim. If a woman wants to be seen equal as a man why must she use her sexual appeal to gain what she wants? Last time I checked that is NOT an act of feminism. Why must women complain about certain things men do? If a woman believes that she, "can do whatever a man can do perhaps even better" she has no reason to complain.…
