#mcrpi5 It's funny to me how the royal family is trying to "mother" Meghan Markle due to her actions and her articulation. In spite of falling in love with Prince Harry, she is compelled to change because she is not like the other white, English members of the royal family.

Although intellect is symbolized by walnuts, I don't think it was "smart" of Joe to give them as gifts to so many women. His ability to procure gifts has to be reinvigorated. Does he give for the girl or for himself? #mcrpi4b

Another instance of people presuming they know what's best for other people's health. It happens in Misery, The Yellow Wallpaper, and Hills Like White Elephants. Why can't we see that the best person to advise us on how to take care of ourselves is ourselves? #mcrpi4a

#mcrpi3 A clear picture of me if I was placed in the narrator's shoes during "The Yellow Wallpaper." Imagine your partner simply dismissing your health concerns because they know best for you. Plus your trapped in a creepy house with only your thoughts lmao

@MeopleSC The man uses repetition similarly how a person keeps questioning someone on the same subject and makes them question themselves.

#mcrpi2b A2: In Hemingway's story, the girl's initial comment about the hills looking like white elephants leads to their discussion about her decision. But later the girl retracts her point about the hills, showing uncertainty in her decision or her ability to voice her opinion.

@ElenaHaase Although some people should be breaking their silence, I feel that others (who tend to control conversations) should learn how to stay silent in order to experience other people's concerns or ideas

@MeopleSC Why would women have to change their voice for the sake of men? I completely agree with Hapsis

#mcrpi2a A1: Naomi Wolf's article argues women should reduce vocal fry and be confident in their ideas. But Hapsis' response shows how it is not all women's fault. Mansplaining contributes to females' lack of confidence and ultimately men need to adjust their behavior, not women.

@ElenaHaase I find it funny that he tries to cover himself by saying,"" I don't want you to do anything that you don't want to do-" Unacceptable behavior from him

#mcrpi2a #hillslikewhiteelephants Okay so this man completely talks over a woman's COMPLETELY VALID concerns over her own body? Then dismisses her fears and tells her that he knows female fertility better than she does? This is like the pinnacle form of mansplaining. Cancelled.

Women shouldn't feel compelled to communicate their thoughts in the same manner as men because of the long burden of silence they have endured. Hapsis refers to criticism of her voice as, for instance, "say "like" less" in her review, yet the issue is not with her voice. #mcrpi2b

Clint Smith's TED talk expresses the dangers of silence and mansplaining contributes to this issue. According to Smith, "Silence is Rwandan genocide. Silence is Katrina." To prevent these situations, men must resist the urge to commander conversations. #change #mcrpi2a
