In the excerpt she Identifies herself as an outcast, teenagers in high school think that you have to be known or popular in order to fit in. Melinda is not. Since they see her as a girl who is an outcast they laugh at her and treat her cruel just because she is a female outcast that's a teenager. Now her age causes her to have oppression by her being 16, 16 is the age where you're either a popular girl or boy, which in this case Melinda is not.]]> 2020-04-30 13:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/541961610 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542032050 Melinda being 16 and female cause her to experience oppression. In the excerpt Melinda identifies herself as an outcast. As her ex friends are laughing at her and saying very hurtful words like "I hate You". 16 and being a teenager in high school are times where you need to learn yourself a little more and try to make new friends, however in Melinda's situation she feels as though the world is against her and has no friends.]]> 2020-04-30 14:07:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542032050 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542056101 Melinda's gender and age cause her to experience oppression because she is a female and a teenager. Older people have this narrative that teenagers are easily impressionable and dont know what's wrong from right. They also see teenagers as these human beings that are driven by hormones and everything that TV idolizes. So with her being a sexual abuse victim they might not take her seriously and think she was being reckless or drunk and asked for what happened to her. They might believe that she might not really understand what sexual assault is and might try to make her believe that she was not sexually abused. With Melinda being a female, the society we live in does not see women as an equal to a man, they see women as these docile and alluring figures that a man can take and use as he likes. So if Melinda tells people about her assault they might blame her and ask her what was she wearing and what did she say to him that made him do that when it was the mans fault and his actions should be taken accountable. ]]> 2020-04-30 14:14:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542056101 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542325842 Melinda's gender and age causes her to experience oppression because at a young age people may see her as a easy target which is why they may talk about her behind her back or just not talk to her at all and as this keeps happening she will think of herself the same way other people do which is why she thinks of herself as an outcast.]]> 2020-04-30 15:37:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542325842 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542391980 Melinda is a 16 year old girl who goes to a high school. she experience oppression because she is a female and many people think they can take advantage her she also think she weak because she is young so people thinkn since we she a female and 16 she cant take of herself]]> 2020-04-30 15:58:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542391980 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542395627 2020-04-30 15:59:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542395627 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542521749 Melinda's gender and age caused her to experience oppression. Melinda's age influenced her oppression by causing her to be isolated by everyone at her school. This is because since she is also teenager, they value the time they have without an authority figure present. Melinda had went against their time by calling the police and was looked down on from her classmates. Melinda's gender also impacted the oppression she faced. Since Melinda is a female, she would face oppression by others using her actions as a reason she was sexually assaulted compared to actually bring account the person who did the assault. This led her to not reveal the true behind her calling the police due to her being unsure if it would lead her to experience more oppression and a target.  ]]> 2020-04-30 16:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542521749 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542545437 2020-04-30 16:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542545437 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542571695 2020-04-30 17:01:54 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542571695 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542580316 Melinda's gender and age cause her to experience oppression because she's a female and a 16 year old teenager. most people who are at the age of 16 are still trying to find out who they are and will most of the time feel like they are an outcast.]]> 2020-04-30 17:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542580316 https://padlet.com/rcorvino21/xe1iulf6arrzovme/wish/542594465 Melinda's gender and age causes her to experience oppression by experiencing age oppression. It is hard for her to be able to speak out due to the fact that she might be considered a child in adults eyes. They might think she doesn't know what she is claiming happened to her. She also faces gender oppression when she gets sexually abused. As a gender stereotype that is commonly known is that females are weaker than males.
