Before starting this amazing period of learning, I would like to introduce me and the meaning of this blog just a little bit.
My name is Sara, I´m 20 years old and I live in Seville, Spain (a beautiful city, you have to visit it!). I study English Philology at the University of Seville. I am messy , quite funny and above all... I am absolutely feminist.
"FEMINIST?! FEMINAZIOH MY GOD, LET´S GET OUT OF THIS BLOG INMEDIATLY, ANOTHER SELF- CONSCIOUS WOMAN!!". Relax guys, you have a wrong impression of what feminism is.
And this is my purpose. I really want to teach you what really feminism is, what this movement aims to and above all, I will teach you how to express these ideas in the most international lenguage that have ever existed, English!. I am going to teach you grammar, vocabulary and listening lessons that will improve your level of English and will make you more aware of the reality that surround women.
You will be wondering "Ok Sara that´s great but.. why Beauvoir?" Well, Simone de Beauvoir is one of the most important theoretical feminist.Thanks to her and her book "The Second Sex" I realized the way woman are treated in this society. This is a "refugee", a safe place in which we can discuss and learn about this topic and improve ourselfs.
Without further delay, ladies, ladies and gentlemen .. welcome to Beauvoir´s refugee!
