It is when you misuse someone else’s culture. I think it is a problem because it’s ripping off someone else and getting more praise than them.

Answer:

The adoption of an aspect of one culture by a person of another culture.

Or when people from one culture use symbols, clothing, artifacts, or other distinctive tropes of a different culture, without any respect for their original meaning or their importance to the people who originally devised them.

Explanation:

I agree that  Cultural appropriation is a problem but, Cultural (appreciation) on the other hand isn't.  It's when you take part in someone’s culture and embrace it whilst acknowledging that it is not your own.

EXAMPLE: Cultural appreciation could be wearing a traditional Ghanaian dress at your best friend’s traditional Ghanaian wedding or eating some Asian food at an Asian restaurant. There’s nothing wrong with sharing our cultures but taking a part of it and claiming it as your own is what's disrespectful.

____ [38]

Answer:

Throughout each story, the characters try to prove something to themselves or other people. In Maureen Daly's short story "Sixteen" the narrator is clearly trying to prove to the reader that she is smart and popular. A very clear example of this occurs at the beginning of the story when the narrator is describing herself. Daly writes, "I mean, I want you to understand from the beginning that I'm not really so dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn't. I get around." When she says, "I want you to understand," she is clearly directing the statement at us, the reader. As she goes on to say that she is not really that dumb, her message clearly becomes an attempt to convince us that she is smart. Finally, when she says, "I get around," it appears as though she is trying to tell the reader that she is popular. Combining what has just been learned from the narrator's statements, She is trying to prove to someone her ethos: that she is smart enough and popular enough to be telling us a story about a boy.
