I...Think We Should Start Stating What We Think
Have you ever noticed the difference between men and women when we state our thoughts while we are talking about a topic, whether if it is serious or not serious? In class or in discussions, most of us women have an opinion on what is being said, whether that is in agreement or disagreement. When we have an opinion, we raise our hand and we start to say what is going on through our minds. We start out with “I feel like…”. We like to say “I feel like..” and while we do feel a certain way, we should start to say “I know” or something that alerts that whoever we are talking too that we stand by our statement. Women have been convinced that we need to be emotional caregivers of the world. We are the ones to deliver bad news and to stay quiet when something needs to be said. However, with the rise of the strong women who are break the glass ceilings, we should start rewording the way we state what we have to say. It is a simple tactic to help ourselves be taken more seriously. Growing
