Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

Miss Representation
I was really thinking about Gender Equality and how much things have changed in the world. I would like to bring up a subject which some may not be able to connect with due to difference in interests. The sports world has become very open to giving opportunities to women where for a very long time was dominated by males. In the sport of basketball, Hockey, Baseball even you have female ref's and sports commentators, five to ten years ago people would make a joke for just the thought of a female to debate sports with the male or to interview and question a male who plays a professional sport on his skill set. I believe that even though a number of females may believe they are still very behind the eight ball on social equality, i think that as long as positive steps are taken forward the light at the end of the tunnel will be sooner than you think.
