How To Read The Rosie Project

Decent Essays
The most interesting book I’ve read recently is The Rosie Project, written by Graeme Simsion. I was appealed to this book because it’s a famous New York Times bestsellers, which is probably a magnificent book, and I love romance novels. The book is about a man, Don Tillman, and he’s trying to find a woman who would get one hundred percent on a designed questionnaire. At the end, he was arranged a date with someone the opposite of his expectations, Rosie Jarman. They first didn’t connect, but they soon to start having feelings for each other when Don did “the Rosie Project” by trying to find Rosie’s biological father since he is a professor of genetics. Don accepted Rosie’s charismatic and uncanny self while Rosie accepted Don’s abnormal routines

    When I first read the title of the article, I was not completely sure of the topic of the essay. However, once I found out that the essay was on the girl perspective and contributions in gangs, I believed that the essay was very important. Many times people assume that women are not involved in gangs, but this is not the case and they are highly unrepresented. I found the essay interesting, because I have never really heard a female gang prospective. Most of the artifiacts and tradiations were not uncommon to me.…

The child discloses the rarity of new toys, but purchases damaged Barbie dolls while on a trip to the flea market. The narrator acknowledges the flaws of the Barbies, but counters the stereotypical “perfect” woman standards by implying her gratefulness of possessing any dolls at all. Through this struggle, the girl learns to cope with her burdened lifestyle while also encountering gender roles and values. Cisneros wrote this story in relation to her own childhood, motivated by the social standards of gender roles and body image in relation to the Barbie doll.…

    Sally and Betty are similar in the way that both act like children when they are around Don. After Betty is thanking Don for allowing her to model for the Coca-Cola commercial, she climbs on top of Don, trying to initiate the sex act, but the scene is a bit awkward due to the fact that the entire time, Betty is talking as a little girl. In the article “Gender Role Behaviors and Attitudes” by Aaron Devor, he states “Speech characterized by sounds of higher frequencies are often interpreted by listeners as feminine, childlike, and ineffectual” (507). Childlike sounds are a stereotypical sign of femininity, and Sally and Betty both fit the stereotype that females are the same as babies, helpless and incapable of taking care of themselves, and the females need wealthy men to take care of the females. Instead, both have to comply with Don’s demands because Don is the man of the house and Don is the one capable of helping the family out financially.…

    Lee’s works have been proven to be innovative in the sense that it covers most, if not all of the issues that arise in the black community. This statement is evident especially when he created one of my favorite films, Crooklyn. This is a film that goes into the “ideal” life of African Americans in the seventies. The most important idea to notice in this film is feminism. Feminism is so broad and shown in narrower topics that relate to it in this dramatic work.…

    According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the definition of feminism is “the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes.” While this definition should be the goal for humankind, feminism also encompasses many other problems with society that cannot be explained through one simple definition.

For example, in the American 1950’s, an almost normal way of treating women was simply by brushing them off in intellectual conversation, believing women were only valued for their maternal instinct. In The Catcher in the Rye, Holden reaffirms similar stereotypes to this, including weakness, stupidity, and the objectification of a woman’s body for sexual…
