"No se nace mujer se llega a serlo"
— Simone de Beauvoir

Simplified Meaning:
In life, no one is born with a set role or identity. Instead, we grow and learn to fit into these roles. Take the example of a young girl growing up. She isn't automatically a woman just because she was born female. Through experiences, society, and personal growth, she learns what it means to be a woman. Think about how children learn to do things like cooking or taking care of others by watching their parents or role models. They might also face expectations about how they should behave because of their gender. So, becoming a woman is about learning and adopting certain behaviors, roles, and responsibilities over time. This means that our identities are shaped by both our experiences and the world around us.
