7. i think girls and young women need to be more

Edited on Sun May-27-07 09:28 PM by jg82567

confident and assertive about their skills/talents (esp. African-American girls)...we don't think twice when men promote themselves and their strengths but women are expected to play demure and dumb...good for her that she's not trying to pretend she doesn't know how to do anything...if you don't believe in your own abilities, why should anyone else?
