Write a paragraph explaining in what ways you have affected the lives of others.

To make a difference and be remembered you do not have to do incredible things, just being there for the people around you can save someone from a meaningless life and help them lead the life they were meant to live. Listening to other people's problems without passing judgment is one of the kindest things you can do. Also just always being kind  to people, because you never know what they could be going through. Like if your at school and you see someone sitting alone, go and sit next to them because by doing that simple small act you could make their day.

yes, they are. i think.

femininity is conveyed through bernice's personality. she doesn't act how the other girls act and everyone thinks she is weird. she learns how to act in a way that was considered femininely appropriate at the time. she becomes so popular but her attempts to be liked end up backfiring when she is pressured into bobbing her hair. the author wrote that bernice cut off her cousin's hair in revenge for tricking her to cut her hair. this was the authors way of trying to change the way feminine is defined and the way women are expected to act.
