Like Boys & Girls I thought that this chapter was very interseting as well. I was very interested as she described her name not as what it meant in a different language but with metaphors and real things. I thought I could relate my name to that when my parents used to tell me how they thought of my name. But I didn't agree with how she thought that women shoudl be thought of second class people because they shouldn't they just like everyone else, they're equal. I liked the part when she talked about how her grandmother waited by the window for something better and how she didn't want to take her place but accepted her name. I was alos interested in the fact that she wanted to baptize herself a new name, because I would like to do that as well because there is a side of me that nobody knows and I need a name to describe it.

I agree with what you said about women being treated equally. Also, i found it interesting what you said about changing your name when you are older to describe who you are.
