Using Cooley's Looking Glass, the theory that we develop our self by interacting with others, I am able to determine my social location and analyze why. I will discuss several different sociological factors that have influenced me and created this person.

Culturally, I am an American. I was born in Idaho, a northern state. Like many Americans, I work hard but enjoy entertainment as well. Since I grew up in a rural mining town in Nevada, I prefer outside activities.

I am a 22 years old, white female. I know that women have had a great deal of persecution in their struggle for equality and happily, I can say that they did great. I was raised that I was equal to men in every way and thus have always been treated that way. I am proud to be a woman and feel lucky to be born into this life...
