Last Wednesday the class discussed country music artist Dolly Parton. I grew up listening to country music and have heard many of Parton's songs. When I was young I thought Parton was a goddess. The article "Diamond In A Rhinestone World"  by Allison Glock, I learned she came from a poor family and made something of herself, without forgetting her roots. In her music she embraces who she is and doesn't care what others think. Parton's known for her blonde hair, big boobs, and southern smile, but possessing these characteristics have influenced sexist words. Many called her a "Slut" or "Dumb", but she didn't care because at the end of the day she knows who she truly is. I love how family orientated she is because when I think of country music thats what I think of. Married to a hardworking husband and with her music career they were the "ideal" family. Dolly Parton broke all stereotypes thrown her way and never backed down of showing her true self.
