They bring all of the definitions of hips to the table. They joke that women suddenly wake up one day with these bony hips on their bodies, not knowing what to do with them. Rachel thinks they are used to hold babies while cooking, and Lucy thinks they are needed to dance. Nenny says that if you do not get hips, you turn into a man. Everyone laughed at her, but Esperanza feels for her sister even though she is young. Esperanza remembers what Alicia tells her about hips and claims that they are scientifically designed for having babies.
The main characters are Rachel, Lucy, Esperanza, and Nenny.
The figurative language is "Ready and waiting like a new Buick with the keys in the ignition"
Why do you think they described their own hips as they did?

They dont agree because they all have their own personal views and there is really no right anwser as to why girls have hips.-Chris Hollovary

the girls dont know what hips mean because they really dont know what they are for. the girls dont know what hips do.
because they all think differently on what hips are, what they so, and what you need them for. None of them can decide which is right and they argue about it.

the all have difrent thoughts about the hips and thats why they dont agree
I think they describes the hips like they did because they are telling the story from the point of view of Esperanza and what she see's on different people.
