While observing America and its social structure‚ being a college student who migrated to this country just nine years ago makes me wonder where I stand. Technically‚ I am no longer an immigrant because I am a citizen and I am able to vote‚ and I feel as though I have gone through a quick process of assimilation along with my siblings.

Women change the world “A woman is like a tea bag- you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water”‚ these were the well said words of former US first lady and leading feminist Eleanor Roosevelt. How many women do our lives comprise of‚ how many have we thanked. The daughters‚ the mothers‚ the sisters‚ the fribblings – friends like siblings‚ the wives‚ the aunts‚ the nieces‚ the grand-some things‚ the young uns‚ the teens. The women in our lives.

Women Make Better Teacher Than Men. I do not agree with tha statement because I think that women and men are in the same level in teaching because both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages.For example‚ women have their natural motherhood while men have their natural fatherhood.
