Hi, I need help with discussion board-Initial Post-10 meaningful sentences-

Initial Post: Current feminist practice emphasizes a diverse approach that includes an understanding of multiple oppressions, power, privilege, multicultural competence, social justice, and the oppression of all marginalized people. How do you imagine it would be to practice within this framework? Be sure to connect your response to something you learned in Chapter 12. To clearly illustrate that connection, your response must contain the page number from the textbook in order to earn full credit.

Attached is chapter 12-Feminist Therapy

I also need reply (5 meaningful sentences) to the following post: This does not need to be connected to content in the textbook.

POST for reply:

I don't need to imagine how it would be to practice in this framework. I live with this message as a guiding premise every day. The text describes feminist counseling as one that considers the "social, cultural, and political context that contributes to a person's problems" (Corey, p.339). I believe whole-heartedly that we must understand the client's environment in order to completely understand them. Not just women, but men as well. Socialization effects all genders' "identity development, self-concept, goals and aspirations, and emotional well-being" (p.339). I have a son and 3 daughters and don't want any of them limited by traditional societal gender roles. I want my son to understand that being "tough" doesn't mean showing no weakness, but more to have the resiliency to deal with what life throws at you. To know his limitations and when to ask for help. I want my daughters to know they can be a fire-person or President or a stay at home mom. I want my girls to love their bodies, regardless of the beauty industry telling them they need to be waifs to be beautiful. There are so many negative, hurtful messages out there. I cannot shield my children from all of them, but I can try to instill a sense of self-worth in them that is stronger than those messages. I believe in assertiveness. I believe in women being able to work and/or choosing not to have children. My husband fed our children bottles and changed their diapers. My children see me working, and going to school, and kissing their boo-boos and cooking dinner. They see my husband drink wine and me drink beer while watching hockey and football. They also tease me about being a "liberal SJW" (social justice warrior in case, like me, you didn't know what the kids were calling it these days). I go out of my way to let them know that they have a choice, and that all that matters is that they are happy with themselves. That they aspire to be genuine and sincere. The hardest part about that is making sure that I remain a role model of that message, for them and my clients.
