1. The tone I felt from paragraph one was hostility and annoyance. It made me feel like I was going to disagree with the entire essay.
2. Being tough is more attributable to men. It means not smiling or feeling the need to fill pauses with chat. Being ladylike is what women are trained into doing. This means the responsibility of making sure everyone is comfortable and always smiling.
3. If they embrace power, they feel conceited. Also, they may feel that it will be destructive to them.
4. She shares that story, because it is a good example of how differently men and women can act during a conversation.
5. She basically replays the scene to illustrate how she should have handled the situation, instead of being ladylike.
