superstitions

According to the video, if you love someone and if you put his picture on the wallpaper of you cell phone and no one see that during three weeks this person will love you, it’s called love charm. But I don’t believe it, it’s only a superstition...
When I was in school, I and my friends we thought that if we wrote the name of the teacher and we put a stone over the paper he’ll be ill and no came at school. We believed on it but we never done this because we afraid to made him seriously sick. When I think about this now it makes me laugh.
According to me, some of beliefs come from to the religion then it’s the need to believe in something
But here I think it’s more a superstition.

The speech

According to me this speech is about the woman in the society, Liza Donnelly demonstrate that since she born the woman is clasificated  that why she always need to prove that there is her place in this society. For example there are some women who want to be thin and fashion. Sometimes she do some things only for her family or for not be put on the fringes of society. According to Donnelly the fear of that reason motive the woman.  
I think that is true, women have too much responsibility even if men underestimate them. The place of the women has changed but is not better than there was few years. Before women was underestimated but helped by men, now it’s not the same.
I agree with Donnelly when she says that the meaning of humour change according to one’s culture because all countries of the world don’t have the same rules of life, the same manners, or the same mentality... And I think that humour is one collective thing and if you don’t understand you can’t appreciate the joke, as well the passage from a culture to another can change the meaning of the joke.
