The Socks

For the reading due Wednesday, I particularly found The Socks very interesting. First off, I liked that it was in a comic-type form and not a long ten page story. This sounds cliche, but sometimes a picture does speak louder than words. The beginning takes place in an anatomy class in which the women are suppose to draw the model. But the model was covered up that not a single part of her body was seen. That was pretty ironic. I would be so angry if I was the girl running and police said what they said to her. I'm glad they decided to rebel and party. I especially liked the line, "Our behavior in public and our behavior in private were polar opposites." the pictures show them all dressed the same with their heads covered with veils. Then the bottom drawing shows the girls with different outfits and hairstyles. I also liked the line that says, "that day, half the class turned on me... happily, there was still the other half." She lost some and gained some.
