The Horror

So for my advanced class' mid-term exam, I had them write an essay answering one of 5 questions. One of the questions was "Which gender do you think has an easier life in Ecuadorian culture? Why? Have you ever wished to be of the opposite gender? Why or why not?" Most students wrote that men have an easier life here because they have so much more freedom and earn much more respect while the women are encaged in social expectations that neither further the progression of Ecuadorian society nor the lives of women. One student, however, wrote:

"I think that female gender has an easier life in my loved Ecuador because women think and plan their future while they are spinsters until they get married. In addition, women can choose between a rich man or an unemployed one, of course if the women is a little ugly she'd has no other choise to accept a man."

Oh what enlightenment!
