Book Advices - 'Giro d'Italia is a men's race' 'Goodnight, stories for rebel girls' Is a very special book. For many years the women had always been relegated in a very marginal roles. They never been the protagonist of the history, They were always represented like a princesses or lovely housewives, They were always part of history , often conducting very important rules, but it has never recognized them the worth they deserve. So , this book is focused on some women that 'made considerable things' for the women emancipation and for the equal rights between sexes. Despite is simplicity and its young target, I really recommend you , If you are a bit curious about the woman lib, this could be a beginning to knowing better the theme :) Now I come across 'Alfonsina Strada', an italian biker woman , the first woman who attempted to the 'Giro d'Italia' , a race where the women participacion were denied: she won it. Sport has to be open to all people , we should have 'mixed team'.... They told to Alfonsina 'Giro d'Italia is a men's race' and she was barred from competing. She didn't accept that answer , so she answered 'Nobody can stop my bike' Alfonsina Strada , a few time later, set a speed record that stood for 26 yrs as well .

International language

Why English is the international language?

-Is it for its simpler grammar compered to others

or is it just because is one of the language most widely spoken?

What do you think about it? 

-And 'don't speak English today' means to be 'a loser'?

Have you ever had the sensation that every tourist takes for granted that EVERYBODY speaks an excellent english? In every part of the world? Doesn't it seem a little arrogant?

Have you ever met an english-speaker that treats you as a loser just because you are not an english speaker?

Thank you for your opinions ,
