This I Believe–Hannah

I BELIVE THAT GIRLS AND BOYS SHOULD BE TREATED EQUALLY BECAUSE MANY GIRLS AND BOYS HAVE AND POSSESS THE SAME PHYSICAL, MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL ABILITIES. FOOTBALL AND BASEBALL ARE ALL EXAMPLES OF THE DISCRIMINATION SHOWN IN TODAYS WORLD. BECAUSE GIRLS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PLAY OR GET SOME OF THE JOBS THAT THEY WANT BECAUSE THEY MIGHT ONLY BE FOR BOYS. I BELIVE THAT GIRLS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO PLAY IN THE NFL, BECAUSE MANY GIRLS HAVE GONE AND PLAYED IN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL AND HAVE TAKEN A TACKLE FROM A HUGE LINE MEN. THROWN A BALL AND MADE THE GAMES WINNING TOUCHDOWN. HAD THERE OWN LITTLE TOUCHDOWN DANCE FOR WHEN THEY PROVED THAT THEY CAN BEAT THE BOYS BY MAKING A TOUCHDOWN. BUT THEY CANT TAKE THAT ANYWHERE BUT HOME. TO SIT BECAUSE WERE NOT ALLOWED IN THE NFL EVEN THOUGH SOME OF US GIRLS ARE REALLY GOOD AND HAVE A LOT OF PASSION AND CAN PLAY. I BELIVE THAT BASEBALL IS A GREAT SPORT BUT GIRLS ARENT ALLOWED TO GO TO THE MAJOR LEAGUES AND SOME ARE REALLY GOOD AT BASE BALL AND SOFTBALL BUT CANT PLAY SOFT BALL THAT WELL EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME SPORT THERES DIFFERENCES IN BEETWEEN THE TWO AND GIRLS SOME HAVE BEEN PLAYING BASEBALL SINCE THEY WERE LITTLE KIDS.!!! BUT ARE THEY GIVEN A CHANCE. NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT’S DISCRIMINATION AND NOT RIGHT AND IT SHOULD BE STOPED. BUT NO ONE WILL STAND UP FOR WHATS RIGHT CAUSE THERE SCARED AND THAT’S WHY ROSA PARKS AND MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. WERE SO BIG BECAUSE THEY STOOD UP FOR THEMSELVES AND GAVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY BELIVED IN AND GOT WHAT THEY WANTED WICH WAS BLACKS AND WHITES TO BE CREATED EQUAL AND THEY NOW ARE. I BELIVE THAT MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR SHOULD HAVE PREACHED NOT ONLY ABOUT BLACKS AND WHITES BUT ABOUT MEN AND WOMEN AND BOYS AND GIRLS AND HOW THERE THE SAME IN SO MANY WAYS. THAT BOYS ARE FIT AND GOOD AT SPORTS BUT CANDICE PARKER WAS THE FIRST WOMEN TO DUNK IN THE NBA AND SHE BEAT FIVE GUYS IN A DUNKING CONTEST AND STACEY PARKER WAS THE FIRST FEMALE KICKER TO JOIN THE NFL AND THAT JUST PROVES THAT GIRLS ARE JUST AS GOOD AS GUYS BUT ARE NOT TREATED IN THE SAME WAY. I BELIEVE THAT GIRLS AND GUYS ARE THE SAME AND SHOULD BE TREATED THAT WAY. EVERY ONE IS CREATED EQUAL AND SHOULDN’T BE JUDGED BY THE OUT SIDES BUT BY THE PASSION FOR THE SPORT, THE JOB, THE GAME, THE ART AND SO MUCH MORE. THIS IS ALSO A DEMOCRACY AND EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO SUCCED OR FAIL. AND GIRLS ARENT GIVEN THAT CHANCE BECAUSE WHY?

I thought that this was good b/c it tells me how she is really committed to telling people on how it is wrong for girls to be thought of less just b/c we are girls. It tells us that girls can do anything just as a guy can do it. She believes that everyone should be treated equally and I believe that too b/c it the truth. Ryanne
