As she gets ready to face the battle field she fastens her armour and shield knowing how tough the world is to her she’s still trying to avoid the fear, yet she walks like an army shoulders up, head high and ego strong, but then it hits her hard that she is only just one solider, one that would do anything to get out of that mess. Is it because of the way she dresses? She prays that the world becomes more accepting when her infant and 2 year old daughter is grown. They claim she is oppressed but they commit the oppressing towards her. Can you still not see the emotions on her face or does the cloth on her head make you visionless to her identity? After all she is just a human being, her hijab is her protection, Dina is a soldier who has suffers the scars of an emotional war. … …show more content…

    You wouldn’t believe everything that's been going for the past two weeks. Remember Betty Parris? She fell into a “sickness” but I heard that there's something darker to the story… witchcraft. . Eventually she woke up and started screaming some nonsense about wanting her mother, who’s been dead for what feels like ages now. That's how you know something sinister is afoot. The only thing that could calm her down was Rebecca Nurse. I don’t know about you, but I think that's pretty suspicious that out of all the people in town, only Goody Nurse could get some sense into the child. Rumor has it that she was caught flying over the Ingersoll’s barn the just a few nights ago. That's just the beginning of it..

Even though Leo was euphoric with the new Susan Caraway, her shunning was not ebbed. The change did nothing for stargirl but cripple her jovial personality.

    Since a child, Stargirl had always seemed a bit… off. Her parents seemed to adore her weirdness, they even seemed to encourage it at times. To demonstrate, her parents called her Pocketmouse. They used it to so much that even she started referring to herself as Pocketmouse instead of Susan. But did her parents ever do anything about it? Of course not. She kept the nickname, until she changed it to Mudpie. Then Hullygully. And then Stargirl. But at the time, I knew her as Mudpie.

    I sit here waiting, waiting for the day for the I can be free. Free from work, free from these awful people, free from everything. I wish I could just settle down at my own place where I can grow my own food, farm my own land, be my own boss. I already dont have to worry about Lennie getting in any trouble. I guess I'm halfway there. It could just be me on my own, on a little farm, with some chickens, maybe some pigs or a cow. I can grow my own food. I know how to cook, I’m not too bad. I can teach myself some things. I can even go into town every saturday and trade in some of my things. While I'm there I can visit Lennie's grave, maybe bring him some pretty flowers. Oh I'm sure he would like that. I really do miss that sun of a gun.

    Hollow eyes glanced around the pristine apartment, the gray scale color scheme seems to match the women clasping her hands together, pursing her lips and searching for approval from the girl that stood in the doorway. Automatically, the girl deduced the woman was quite wealthy, especially in the neighborhood she'd now live in. The streets were busier, filled with nicer cars instead of busted ones without their fenders falling apart at the edge. Her nimble fingers explored the wall as she took careful steps into the living room. Winnie wasn't acclimated to this life style: the wallpaper wasn't being striped at the corners, stainless carpets without nothing questionable left behind, no sign of undesirable critters, and silence. She could finally

  • What Is The Role Of Women In A Thousand Splendid Suns?

    1822 Words  | 4 Pages

    According to Doucleff, “‘wearing the hijab eliminates many of the hassles women have to go through — such as dyeing their hair,’ she says. ‘For example, you're getting old, and gray hairs, when you wear the hijab, you might not think about dyeing your hair because nobody sees it anyway.’” By wearing a hijab women do not have to worry about “gray hairs, and can focus on other parts of their lives. Although this seems like a trivial improvement, women in the west spend inestimable amounts of money on beauty products and a surfeit amount of time on their daily regimen. Even though the burqa is therapeutic in helping women with their appearance, it can be physically restricting, “Mariam had never before worn a burqa…The padded headpiece felt tight and heavy on her skull…The loss of peripheral vision was unnerving, and she did not like the suffocating way the pleated cloth kept pressing against her mouth” (72). In this excerpt the burqa is described as “tight”, “heavy”, and “suffocating, making it seem like an unpleasant garment to be ensconced in. The burqa can cause an “unnerving” feeling, which can make daily tasks hard to complete. When interviewing a girl in Afghanistan Daniel Pipes, American historian, writer, and commentator, got her opinion on the burqa, “When I wear a burqa it gives me a really bad feeling. I don't like to wear it…I don't like it, it upsets me, I can't breathe properly.” The discomfort the girl feels in the burqa “upsets” her, linking her physical distress to emotional distress. The girl gets “a really bad feeling” when she wears a burqa, showing that the physical effects of the burqa can be negative. Besides the physical hardships Muslim dress may cause, it can also cover up physical abuse, “A Muslim teenage girl

    Through her hard work and determination, she is triumphant. In meshuggeneh on page 296, she shows one way she is changed. “I walk out the door before Papa’s anger has time to uncoil before Papa’s hand has time to curl into a fist.” If this happened in the first part of the book, she would’ve stayed and taken the punch, but now she is a changed young woman. Now, she walks out and won’t take the punch of her father. Also, in twenty-five on page 236, she realizes how she must fight back. She says “I have only been in this country two years but quickly, I learned you have to fight for what you want, you have to take what you need.” She used to be afraid to fight back, but now she is determined to become triumphant in the end.

  • Feminism In Zahra By Al-Shaykh's Zahk

    1229 Words  | 3 Pages

    The obstacle that Zahra is facing is the result of how her behavior and how her psyche become society’s into the destruction of war. In her early year at the beginning of the story, brutal father rejection of her because of her acne and this war a symbolic for her inner scar. She is victims of her own father being a hater .Within this Context Ann Adam commented that: "Zahra 's abject and acne-filled face not only makes visible the emotional scars this upbringing has had on the sensitive young girl, but also literalizes the ever increasing gender conflict…between men and women for the control and regulation of female bodies” to show the abuse of the father on her own daughter because of his masculinity. He has more power on her because she respect her as a father which he takes advantages not by treating her as a puppet. This is also one of the symbol of man’s dominance in the world on the society because of all actions leading to cruelty toward females as a symbol of object. The author used this quote to help the audience understand this theme when we see “He would scold me severely whenever he caught me playing with my pimples….My father would go raving mad every time he noticed my face and its problems .He would nag my mother sarcastically : “ That will be the day when Zahra married. What a day of joy for her and her pock-marked face! (24-5)”. The author is trying to convey to us about the fear, dominance the father has in the family. It looks like anything Zahra must do must be check and be accepted, notify by the father before she goes on further. His cruelty toward her own daughter has made her to believe the tension of male on her is unwanted. She understood the description of feminism in the patriarchal way in the society as herself being rejected, unloved and discriminated against by its own people such as his father.
