Reading Response #1

I felt that the reading for the introduction of identity, dude looks like a lady, and the he hormone, all had some type of connection to what people views identify as. I the Intro to identity it gave a good example of identity when the guy lost his wallet and it was returned 46 years later. They explained how the things that you carry around in your wallet is a metaphor to your identity. It basically said that if you lose your wallet you are unable to function just as if you where not to know who you were. Your wallet reveals a portion of your personal identity.
I also thought that it was creative how there is no definition for identity, instead assumption of identity are used and those assumptions are those that many people can identify with as far as them making the same assumptions.
In the Dude looks like a lady portion, the ignorance of people and the way they half analyze features to come up with what is normally labeled as male or female is shown through a woman's short story. And i noticed that even though she was a victim of mis-identification, she had her own ways of pining those assumption of identity on other people.
Lastly there is the He hormone section, i couldn't really get a cleat understanding of what was being said in this chapter but maybe after going over it with other, rereading it, or reading the response of other i can gain a better understanding.
