My name is Lauren Best. I am a sophomore at the University of Oklahoma and am majoring in Film & Video Studies. I am from the small town of McAlester, OK. I feel like that claustrophobic place shaped me a lot.. obviously.. but to think liberally and openly. I love music a great deal and have been working on expanding my vinyl collection this past year or so. I really love rock n roll and all of its soul. I like to ride my bicycle, reading, playing sudoku, and of course, watch movies. I just started working at OU Poll and it's very easy. I decided to take Intro. to Women's Studies because:
1. I took a course called Legacies of the 60s in which we studied the women's movements and feminism. That sparked my interest, but I want to learn more.
2. My close friend Emily took this course before and said I would enjoy it just as she did.
A few questions I hope to answer this semester are:
1. Why do women make 75 cents to a man's $1?
2. Why is there STILL so much pressure on women to get married and have chilren?
3. How can a man be a feminist?
4. How does a young woman claim herself confidently as a feminist in today's society?
5. Why do some women prefer male dominance?
adios senoras.
