Bernice bobs her hair

When a person decides to go to the grocery store, they are provided with a large variety of produce, poultry, meat, and many other various items. Within life, a person can come to discover a large quantity of things that come in numerous variations. In Bernice Bobs Her Hair, the author decided to show the various types of women that can be found in today’s society. In doing so, he demonstrated the point that every single woman is in fact her own women through his literary work, Bernice Bobs Her Hair.
Many things have come to change from the earlier times of our society’s attitudes, behaviors, and views. In the older generations of women, they were required to uphold the appearance of true womanhood. They were not allowed to show large amounts and portions of skin, meaning that their clothing covered their necks, arms, and legs. They were not allowed to speak their mind on matters that they felt were wrong. They were not allowed to carry out the tasks that were commonly assigned to the man of that time era. Taking care of their children was the main and sometimes only job that the woman of that time was allowed and expected to do as their job. These changes have gradual come to be over a large and long period of time and life. One of the things that have developed differences over a large period of time is the way a women acts towards others, portrays her own self towards others, and views her own self towards others. In today’s society, the average view of a modern day women has come to be more strong in will, courage, and thoughts. If a man asks a woman to assistance in the production of building a skyscraper for him, then the woman would have been willing to do so as long as they are educated in the field of architecture. They would not have been unwilling to do this activity for any reason other than the lack of education on the field of work that is asked of them to do. If a group of men or a single man wants to adhere to their perverted needs, wants, or wishes and decides that they want to rape, assault, or forcibly make a woman be part of a sexual interaction or intercourse with them, then the woman would not simply remain still, scared, or silent. The woman would be yelling at this person or group, fighting this person or group, and objecting to be forced to participate in this activity. They would lack the quality of fear and replace it with courage. If a man or woman tries to convince a woman that they are too inferior, dumb, or naïve to possibly be correct about a certain situation, problem, or equation, then the woman would not simply accept their word as a true fact. The woman would use their individual thoughts, knowledge, and experience to discover if they are indeed correct, completely wrong, or partially close to being right about what they were told by another person as being wrong in total. A modern day woman has come to be known as a more out-spoken person who will not be allowed to be easily pushed around. They will speak up if they are feeling put down. They will not remain quiet if an individual decides to not give a woman the respect that they have come to deserve over the many generations that the female race has come to live on this earth. Every individual woman does not want to always be like each other but unique in their own personal ways. They may choose to dress differently than other women. They may choose to talk differently than other women. They may choose to represent themselves differently than other women.
In doing so, he demonstrated the point that every single woman is in fact her own women through his literary work, Bernice Bobs Her Hair. This gave the author’s literary work a sense of understanding towards how women do not behave or act all the same. Even though every individual woman or lady are all classified and placed under the category of the female race, they all have their own personal appearances, attitudes, characters, traits, and minds.
