Greetings and salutations! My name is Mackenzie Dierks and i am a sophomore majoring in Agricultural Studies and International Agriculture, and getting a minor in German. I am a total nerd and am uber excited for this class. I saw the posters for it up at the end of the spring semester, and Dr. V talked about it in the Berlin Stories class so that's how i got interested.
I thought that the article brought up a lot of neat points, and it also makes me think about the "skills" that robotic, or super, women are given as opposed to the ones that male superheros and robots get to sport. There were also a some really great quotes in the article that put a totally different, mainly feminist, view on the situation.
