Letter for Junot

1 Dear Junot,

2 I am Choose an adjective grateful to show you my emotion that I feel when I read your short story, “How to Date a Browngirl, Blackgirl, Whitegirl, or Halfie,". Your story story was too much emotional for me because it was much realiste and have a great thinking lesson in it how boys should treat all women despite our type of difference.

3 One line that stands out for me is, “If she’s a white girl, you’re sure you’ll at least get a hand job. ” line 3 I think this line is interesting because it shows how much women are below not matter the colors. Since the hand job is not available to everyone. And as women even today we get effect with that problem.

4 Another set of lines that stands out for me is, “You want to say, '' Who do you want to ask you out? But you already know. Let her button her shirt and comb her hair, the sound of it like a crackling fire between you. When her father pulls in and beeps, let her go without too much of a goodbye. She won’t want it. During the next hour, the phone will ring. You will be tempted to pick it up. Don’t. Watch the shows you want to watch, without a family around to argue with you. Don’t go downstairs. Don’t fall asleep. It won’t help. Put the government cheese back in its place before your moms kills you.” line 26 I think these lines are fascinating because The whole story is about how the narrator is advising the boy on how to treat a women based on their race. And this has a great connection with the whole world of today specifically west africa because women can't have voice when man is not there.

5 Your short story helps me to understand story that I once read in Africa call “Feminist from women are illegal in Africa” that also talk about the abuse of men on women despite all humans are equal boys don’t want to hear that. Since they are thinking without them women can not survive or arrive so some jobs are bend for women. I still think why this is a big deal in our society but never have the answer like today after finish reading your story I realize the big impact from boys to girls .

6 Thanks for your short story. I look forward to seeing what you make next. Since I really enjoy it and it helps me to open my mind about our society even though some things are hard for us like women we can change it . By changing their mind a find a good solution because we have a right that boys should respect us no matter what will happen.
