Argument Analysis: Boys Will Be Men

Improved Essays
In this scenario “Boys will be boys” is based on some colleagues which are discussing on how they feel about their associates, who can be able to speak clearly between themselves in this article which is based on gender socialization, which can be mention to a learning conduct and approaches that can be considered suitable in a situation that the employees are men that are in their first year in college. Since they had graduated from high school this type of discussion can be part of the social norms showing that they have not yet been adjusted to a workplace environment. So as I read the scenario in a situation like this I believe Shirley Wright’s comment will make me more likely to file a proper complaint. Because of the circumstances that the employees were …show more content…
I can agree with Ron DesVue I think that he brought up a very good point, with something like this people can get themselves fired so these boys from high school need to know that they are making a huge mistake. In a case like this I believe if you can speak to anyone about an issue like this then it makes them more likely to stop because it can make them very aware that they are not being professional and that will cause someone to lose their job for awful behavior. This can be an important lesson for a young individual because they do not always know that their behavior is wrong and that they can hypothetically lose their job with such conducts and actions. I won’t be able to agree with Hugh Jim Bissell in a case like this I think it can be ridiculous to intimidate someone to keep their job. In that case I don’t feel that it is professional to record a person’s conversation without their knowledge and letting them know that if they do not stop with that behavior that there will be further consequences and the situation will be taken to the boss they will never know how the boss will feel with all that is going on having a recording and using it against them that is very unethical for someone to do

    Sexism in the workplace has been a topic of discussion amongst people for quite some time, seeing as women are more often than not treated under different circumstances and standards than their male colleagues. It is an unfortunate fact that women are often seen as inferior to their male counterparts which in turn, leads to the questioning of their ability to function in certain environments and perform certain tasks. For example, the authority of women is often challenged and they are not given the same respect as men. This issue is presented in numerous work environments, including college campuses, in which the issue is a serious one. In the short story, “Horseman” by Richard Russo, the protagonist, a female college professor names Janet…

    There is a shortage of high quality role models. When describing a respectable role model, particularly for young men, the definition is rather relative, ranging from courageous and strong to respectful and at times, vulnerable. By being able to physically and emotionally respect women while maintaining their independent moral values, men are able to provide role models for those around them, all while upholding a standard for themselves, as well. By gaining some form of consistency, boys will gradually become more independent of the popular thing to do, and more dependent on what is morally correct. By comparing Skidelsky’s “The Trouble with Boys” with Tony Porter’s Ted Talk titled, “A Call to Men”, this cycle of no role models and disrespect is identified with Porter’s real-life examples of violence and further exemplified through professional descriptions via Skidelsky.…

    The phrase “more royalist than the king” is used by Judith Shapiro in her work “Transsexualism: Gender and the Mutability of Sex” to explain how one who does not identify with their prescribed identity is often tempted to find ways to express the most compelling way to refute it. In Kim Fu's Novel “For Today I am a Boy” there are two characters that I would like to interpret in terms of the phrase referenced by Shapiro, the main protagonist Peter, and his father. Peter expresses himself in a way that both refutes his prescribed gender identity as a boy and expresses his (her) longing to be a woman. Peter's Father expresses himself in a way that refutes his prescribed culture as a Chinese man and expresses his longing to assimilate into Canadian…

    Taking Women Students Seriously In Rich’s speech, she asserts that women students are not taken seriously, this is true because, me, as a female student can speak on the issues that the author states about females not being taken seriously. “I see my function here today as one of trying to create a context, delineate a background, against which we might talk about woman as students and students as women” (Rich 443). This speech was spoken by Adrienne Rich, who has strong solutions to the way female students are treated in and out of the classrooms as well as in society in the 1940s, by stating examples and some of her personal experiences as a female student and as a women teacher living in a world that looks down upon women as if…

    Section A Take a second and think of the dirtiest “f-word” you can fathom. That's right, you should be thinking of the word “feminism.” More people every day are offended by the concept of feminism than the use of any other “f-word” to be thought of. Men and women ask why women are still fighting when there's supposedly nothing left to fight for, but feminism is still a popular subject.

    Women And Equality In The Workplace Gender Equality is the most common issue which has come across at the workplace in which women are treated inferior than the other men employees. It has been noticed than women are being paid less than men, and there is a male-dominant crowd in the workplaces. For no reason women are set apart when they are equally intelligent as men. It is very casual that women are also capable of doing a particular job as men. Gender discrimination in workplaces are fallacious assumptions and must be stopped because women are just as productive as a male employee is in doing an allotted task.…
