~ I really liked this chapter. When I first started reading it what it made me think about is how there is a lot of sterotypes about any or EVERYTHING. The woman talked about her image of what a topless dancer is.That a lot of them are on drugs, are tall, have breast implant and go on Jerry Springer to reveal their "secrets". I used to have the same image of what a topless dancer would be also. But as I got older I realized NOT ALL stripers are on drugs, tall, blonde, backstabbing and slutty. Some do it because the economy is bad. They don't have family or a husband to help them make ends meet. Being a stripper you make a lot of money FAST. That's what drives woman to strip. FAST MONEY. It doesn't make you a bad person. Some people just choose different jobs to make money.
~ Reading how her parents didn't really pay much attention to her feelings when she told them about not feeling comfortable with her body made me sad because they should of talked to her about pubity and developing. Maybe if they sat down with her and explain it, she would of understood the situation more when she was younger. I could see that she was self conscious and needed a mans compliment to make her feel better but I believe that the reason why after a while she got annoyed with the men because she needed to see that she was beautiful and accept herself before she got the acceptance of others. Once your confortable with your body, you have space for others to like your body.
