Gender. I believe gender shapes my identity more than my race or ethnicity.

Think about that statement for a moment. Is life for women in the Third World really worse than life for men in the Third World? Do the men in these countries not suffer to defend their families from criminals, fight in horrific wars, get tortured, get murdered like they're disposable, prefer to starve before letting their wives and children go hungry, etc?

Life is hard in general in the third world but life is harder for a third world women....that's a fact.
