Little Women


The most valuable gift we have from God is our free will. As a citizen of our country, a resident in the Philadelphia area, and a teenage girl in an all girl high school, my eyes have been opened drastically to the way individuals have abused the gift of free will. After reading the article “Little Women” it is evident that children, especially females, are sexualized at a very young age. I think that if this situation is this problematic at the moment, it will only continue to prosper and grow if individuals are not conscious as to how they are selling themselves in public. When I enter the workplace in the future, I will put much thought into what I wear because I know that I can draw attention from anyone if I do not.  In my eyes, social media is mostly to blame for how our society displays this specific problem. Television shows like the Kardashians and Toddlers and Tiaras are prime examples of poorly individuals treat their appearance publicly. The Mount has taught me that individuality in any human being can make a difference in this world no matter how small of an action.
