Human Beings Are Individual and Distinct.

Question:
Do you think that it is more challenging to overcome the limitations of our gender or the trappings of poverty? Why? Explain.

Answer:
I feel that it is more challenging to overcome the trappings of poverty. We live in a world where, in my opinion, people face a bigger fear of keeping there economic status straight. Although I will agree that the limitations of gender was bigger years ago, but its not really that big of a deal now days. Everyone is suffering in the situation that our nation is going through at the current moment. So on that note, the trapping of poverty is a bigger challenge as apposed to people's judgment on gender types.

Question:
How does Maggie overcome both the limitations of her gender in a male dominated sport and her upbringing in poverty? Why is she successful? How is a model for others?

Answer:
In the story, Maggie shows how strong she is and is aware of what shes capable of doing as long as she puts her mind to it. She's successful because she not only believes in herself, but shows others that they should believe in her too. I believe that Maggie is tremendous model to other people [mainly ranging from the female sex] by proving that girls can do the same things that guys are capable of doing. She shows strength and power, even though she suffered from a poor childhood.
