her freedom
This story definitely presented a new point of view from this girl. She explained her life and her reasons for what it means to her to wear her veil. She thoroughly explains how she feels why its so important and meaningful to her why she wears her veil. Appearance to her does not matter which is completely different to the cultural views in our American society. It is sad that our society believes so much in looks and that people are admired because looks and what they wear and their sex appeal. Some people even find it necessary to change how they look so they can look even prettier which is sad because people are naturally pretty and should accept how they are, just as they are. She explains how she feels free from sexual harassment and she does not feel like she is judged based off what she wears or how she looks, which to her makes her feel free. She feels she is looked at as a human being and never judged by looks which she believes is the most free feeling ever. I think she feels free and does not care how others judge her off of her clothing and does not care that some people discriminate because she feels free no matter what they say. I respect how she feels and how her veil makes her feel; she has the freedom she wants and she feels no one can judge her based off her looks and or her body!

controversyyyyy!
If the university is a one sex university and a student decides to change their sex after being admitted into the university this causes a controversial issue. The student that changes their sex in a one sex university would, I believe only cause problems and bullying upon others for themselves. It should be that students choice if they would like to stay or not. It should be confronted to the student that staying in that university may cause other students to bully and what not, but in the end it should be a personal choice. The university should not be the deciding factor if someone wants to stay at the university or leave. It is unfair to take a school away from someone, or anything for that matter, because of the sex. The student should think about their life and the obstacles they might run into, but in the end it should be their own decision. The university should not have the right to chose if a student is allowed to stay at a university because of their sex or if they should be forced to leave. As being a citizen of the United States, It seems to me that no one is supposed to be discriminated on their base of gender! According to that I would say this statement made in the Bill of Rights, this is considered an illegal discrimination against gender which is completely wrong.

I do things for me..and others!
NO! I definitely disagree, I do not believe every act I have ever performed was done because I wanted something. I believe there are things in life I have definitely done in order to get what I want. Although, there have been times I have done something in life not to get what I want, but I choose that way, because I know it is the right thing to do. There have been many instances in life that I choose to do something because I knew it may not get me where I want, but it may have been the right thing to do at the time. For instance, if I found out my best friend’s boy friend was cheating on her, I would tell her. I wouldn’t tell her because I wanted something from it, I would tell her because it would be the right thing to do. Although in most situations, I would probably state in about 85% of my situations I have probably done something because I did want something. If I study for eight hours for a test, it is because I want something from it, I want an A! Although, I would say there are different situations and different things may come up in life, and majority of the time you are doing something because you want something, but there are also instances in life where you may do something to help someone else or because you think it is the right thing to do at the time.
