= The balance between opposites. =



====Welcome to Shelby's Women in Literature Wiki! I am very interested in human’s roles in their environment and society. I love learning about how I, as an individual, can help make society a better place. I had never really considered taking a Women Studies class of any sort until my course decision paper needed to be turned in. Looking down at the list of English electives I selected a few at random which some of my friends had taken. A few of my friends, and my brother, had taken this course and mentioned that it was an eye-opening and unique course. When I found out that I was going to take this course, I thought I would be learning about hard core, women only studies. I also thought that we would only be reading and analyzing women studies in the past. This was definitely not the case. I was able to learn that equalism is what feminism is, and still to this day society continues to strive towards this goal. Surprisingly, there were a lot of males in my class. This helped motivate discussions and gave me the realization that both women and men must strive together to make equality in society. There needs to be a balance between opposites.==== media type="file" key="shelby's voice.wma" width="300" height="300"
