| Gender inequality, as I've addressed in my previous post, is the main reason that keeps me away from doing the BArch at USC. Unfortunately, my roomates (female architecture students) don't understand that. I always felt I can do whatever I want... until I started to face the cold reality of not having money to make my dreams happen.
"A great client deserves a great architecture", an instructor told me, he asked, "Why don't you become a developer or at least find a developer husband or a banker or something like that?" If I were the person I once were, I would say, "What an insult!" But I am more aware of my situation than ever! I responded calmly, "You are right." This doesn't mean I become a submissive, brainless, anti-feminist, dumb girl, this means I am mature enough to make a CORRECT decision.I encourage other girls to do the same, IF YOU ARE SMART ENOUGH TO CRACK THINGS LIKE ARCHITECTURE, YOU ARE DEFINITELY HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME RICH! Do what you have to do so you can do what you what to do! |
