Journey to the Aisle shares a life experience growing up in
the barrio in south Texas where Spanish and Mexican
cultural infl uences and traditions, being the norm,
presented obstacles and confl icts while experiencing
immersion into educational environments. Practicing
Catholicism was the core of daily existence in the lives
of families.
Growing up in a family with ten siblings, the author
shares stories about learning how to survive daily in a
male-dominant Spanish speaking home environment
where gender roles were defi ned through unwritten
rules. Attending an Irish Catholic School in the barrio
and ultimately a public school system led to a journey of
refl ective questioning of cultural expectations.
She relates personal struggles and confl icts encountered
as she journeys through the process of deciding to make
a commitment to marrying.
