Shit, I'm trying to dedicate this chapter to this user, but I don't know how to do that on mobile. Well, either way, I'll do it again when I get my laptop but for right now; aanoymousxp thank you for voting on my chapters! I appreciate it!
Sighing depressively, I lean back against the spiny chair as I rub circles into my templet. This essay was getting to me and despite it being due next week, I wanted to get it out of the way so I could have a true relaxing week break.
The pen glued to my hand as I bit onto the end cap, my minds swamped with ideas — which would be soon be interrupted by the annoying sound from outside of my bedroom door.
"REI!" Footsteps announce their arrival into my room as I spin around in the chair, giving Kenji a blank look.
"What?"
"I was thinking—what are you doing?" I didn't know if my brother was asking a rhetorical question, as the moment those words left his lips, he walks over to my desk and leans over to see the finalised document. "The importance of feminism," he reads the title off the white screen as I rolled my eyes and push him out of my personal bubble. "Why are you writing about that?"
"Because it's for my sociology class — my teacher said we need to write a paper on something we were passionate about and I wrote about feminism."
"Why?"
"Because I'm a feminist,"
"No, I know that," he shakes his head, "I mean, why is feminism important?"
I bit my lips, struggling to explain this down to my brother. That's why I was struggling writing the paper; I know what feminism is but I wasn't the best to point them to words, "feminism is... equal rights. For women and men."
"But why is it called feminism when it's supposed to be about both genders?"
I look down, thinking of an honest reply, "because, at the moment, girls have less rights than boys do. Feminism is to promote the fact that as girls, we should be able to have equal rights to guy. And not only systemically, it means in life and control." I let out, before proceeding into another explanation, "feminism is about women beginning to have control over their own bodies. Feminism is the equality of political, economic and social rights."
