following a feminist blog

http://maedchenblog.blogsport.de/


The aim of this blog is to treat a variety of women's issues. Over twenty writers write about topics such as inside the body, relationships, sexuality and friendship as well as psychology, pop culture and subculture, politics, education and training.

The joint venture sees itself as the answer to what preach "normal" youth or girl's magazines. The blog hat abou 50,000 visitors in the past year. The authors have gathered primarily through the Internet.

One of them is Dodo: "Feminism means, to recognize that there are differences between gender and that they are treated differently in society. We should analyze this and do something about it.

Dodo is a blogger who writes always whenever she finds somethint interesting.
Feminism and Genderpolitic are linked together, especially by the younger feminists and gender activists.

Systemic: Personal as Political

MUSLIM WEDDING CAKE

This picture is showing just one side of "Feminism" in cartoons..

This picture immediately caught my eye because you can see a clearly recognizable difference between a man and a woman.

It is set in conjunction with the Islamic faith.

In this religion many women are oppressed and have no rights. The man's position is
always over the womans and he is the one who determines all. Just as you can see this
on the example with the cake. The man stands a few steps above her, which shows that
he has more power than she. She is veiled and stands alone and helpless under him..

But is this the typical image we have from the Islam and the women in Islam?
Of course there are still strong differences in many regions between men and women to recognize. The women there have like I said before no rights and must do what is prescribed for them.

But in many areas this situation has changed: Many Muslim women do not want oppression any more! Many of them get an education and find good work. They become independent and their own boss. Some are financially dependent on their husbands and are afraid not to do it alone. Others are afraid of their man or the pressure of the family. However many Muslim women come out of this pattern ..

The reason why I chose this picture was to show the differences between a man and a woman especially in Islam.

Meinten Sie: Hiermit setze ich vor allem den islamischen Glauben in Verbindung

With this picture I wanted to show that everythin is possible.. you just have to try and fight for your dreams and rights, like Waris Dirie..!!

I think she is the perfect example for a strong and successful woman.. and her way was not easy..she was born into a nomad family living in the Somali desert near Ethiopia..at the tender age of five, she was forced to undergo the inhuman procedure of FGM (female genital mutilation). More than 8000 girls become victims of this heinous crime every day..at the age of 13 her family she should marry a man who was old enough ot be her grandfather, so Waris fled her homeland..After a daring escape and many tribulations she arrived in London.. Her time there was not easy, but she never gave up!

From that moment a talent scout gave her the chance to become a supermodel.. and she took this chance ..


I think she is amazing and she shows young woman especially with no rights that if you are strong you are able to reach everything you want. That is the reason why I picked this collage..

a. When did/do you become aware of…

The shape of your body?      I think I first noticed the shape of my body with the age of twelve or thirteen in school.

The color of your skin?         When I was in grammar school some of my classmates said that my skin is darker than their skin. My whole family has brown skin because of our origin.

Your gender?                           When my body changed I noticed my gender and saw a difference between girls and boys.

Your sexual identity/orientation?  I think some women are really beautiful and I’m really fascinated in the female sex  J but although I was always just attracted to boys.

Your religious/spiritual views?         My family is very religious. We went to church very often, so I early start to get in contact with my religion. But I am very interested in other religions and I am open to learn a lot about them.

Your political views?                           Unfortunately I do not like to talk about political topics and I am also not very interested in.   

Your age?                                               I don’t think a lot about my age and I have no problems with getting older. I think this is also a process like any other in our life’s.                                                              

b. Intersubjective Prompts…

How do you see yourself?                 I think I am a very grateful person. I always help people if I am able to do that. I also think that I am a good listener. My family and friends can definitely lean on me.

How do others see you?                     I think some people think that I am arrogant when they see me the first time. But when they know me better they always say that I am a nice person. For me it is very important that my family and friends know who I am.
