I wanted to comment on the reading from Aya de Leon, If Women Ran Hip Hop. I enjoyed this reading, because it was really entertaining. Some of the things seemed unrealistic and to the extreme, like having social workers at the club, although I would like to see how that works, seeing as I'm going into Social Work. i would work at a club with rappers. I enjoyed the statement, " the only folks dancing in cages would be dogs and cats fromt he local animal shelter excited about getting adopted by the pet lovers in the crowd." I think it was very creative and cute to think about dogs and cats, but what about the bunnies and all the other lonely animals out there. I guess even though everything in that sounds great. I feel no matter how we make changes, that either way there is still going to be controversy and discrimination against people. It would be interesting to create a club like that just to see how it went. I bet the business would be booming. Some of the things mentioned in this reading should be alliled to the men that run hip hop. I mean condoms in a basket would be a great idea regardless of what gender. Sex is a consentual thing that affects both men and women. It would be good becasue a lot of people go out have a good time and then don't think about the consequences of their one night stands. Maybe we could prevent unwanted preganacies, not only for women, but the men as well.
