What is your opinion on these topics?" Well...it depends on the situation. If its a violent physical fight …TELL A TEACHER STRAIGHT AWAY. I wouldn’t recommend getting into the fight because unfortunately the good guys always get hurt. But if it was a violent mental fight( I mean with words and the name calling) , then you can get involved and try to end the mess, stand up for the poor guy…Someone has to…or who would…imagine a world that everyone is alone,scared and defenseless…wait never mind some in the world are living that kind of world….. “Should we try not to get involved or should we intervene?

Do you think it will ever change?" I think it takes time and awareness of the problems, that goes for the question about gender roles. Often times our cultures force us to carry a lot of baggage, but I think women gaining more power is vital to a better world. So stand up take charge and let's watch you lead.

I guess it has always been like that because women were the ones to take care of the children and raise them, while the men would be out working or hunting, if we go way back in time. In some cultures, that I know of, the girl's family have to pay or give a gift to the groom, and I guess it means that the men have more power. Like in Saudi Arabia, women are not allowed to drive, and in many cultures it's mostly boys and men who get an education. In richer conutries, though, girls usually attend school more than girls in poorer countries or developing countries as you would call it. I've actually often wondered why it has to be like this, because women are just as smart as men, so why aren't they taking up 50% of the schools all over the world? Sometimes I wonder if women would ever get more power?! I guess you're right about this:"But don’t you have the power to choose to not buy or watch?" But in many cases people don't think they have a choice because of society. They want to be as cool or "in" as their friends.

How did men gain so much "power" over women. In which cultures has this shifted? How? Why? How did women take their power back? Did you know that women do something like 70% of the worlds labor: factories, farming, child raising etc..but only receive a small percentage of the wealth? Why? You raise some great points, "Sellers are the kings of poppetmasters of our time. They tell us when we are cool, what to buy, what to throw away, what to eat, how to live. They absolute corrupted the world." But don't you have the power to choose to not buy or watch? Great point! People think that they get power from what they own. I would say; NO! The world is not about STUFF, it’s about taking care of those we love, and appriciating what we have. Don't worry about not always saying things in class. I am so glad that I can hear your voice here...keep it up. You are doing an amazing job.
