Last year I took a class called Philosophy of Gender. May sound a bit like nonsense, but I learned a lot in this class. Going into it, I found my opinions differed substantially from those of the professor and other philosophy students. "These ugly virgins are over-concerning themselves here," I thought, sparing no haughtiness. Yet by the end, I had indeed turned into a miserable feminist.
The term paper that turned me feminist is on sexuality and objectification in the service industry. This is a subject that I as a bartender felt I could easily exploit into turning out some conclusion that the professor would find coincided well with the class material. To my surprise, my own research opened my eyes so that my opinions actually began to change to coincide with the class material.
