Cry Journal 2

Mostly in the story he is characterizing men because the main character is a man but you do get a few tastes of women in this culture. There's a little bit of difference like how the woman are cooking and stuff but actually there's a lot less than I thought there would be. It might change later on in the book though. But right now, surprisingly it seems like men and women are pretty equal. You might expect in a foreign place like fifty years ago that women would be treated differently but it seems like they really aren't. Like in the beginning of the book, when he's opening the letter with his wife, she seems very strong and she even opens it. And also kumalo listens to her and seems to really respect her opinon.
