She used her own writing and the writing of other experts to give us the comfort that she was the authority on the subject at hand. Not every time we approach a subject will we be able to show that authority from the first words that come out of our mouths, and it becomes necessary for us to give examples of why we are the subject matter expert of the topic at hand. For example, if I am in a briefing on a subject in the Air Force and an officer takes the podium I will assume he is authority on the subject. However, if an airman who has been in the military for less than two years talks about the same subject I will need a little bit of his background to full trust his expertise. I had never heard of Taylor Clark, but after I saw what background she had and that she had done her research is was very easy for me to believe in her ethos argument. The last style Clark used very was the logos or the reasoning part of her argument. Specifically, the deductive style of reasoning. This style relies on the premise of the argument. She shows that most women are coddled when they are young and scared. Therefore, if women never get the chance to face their fears at a young age they will not know how to face those same fears when they are older. As Professor Spoke would say this seems logical. In my opinion, this style was the one that really drives the point home that women aren’t not anxious because of their emotions
