Response To Marge

Decent Essays
Marge makes an excellent point in that you should focus your attention on finding someone who you genuinely like in which you have common interests. Even among the most attractive people, looks will fade as the aging process continues. I feel terrible writing that physical attractiveness fades with time and dislike that I live in a superficial "youth obsessed" society, but we have been conditioned to think this way. confused

I dated a man at one point in my life who I wasn't attracted to physically at all at first, but later found him quite attractive (both physically and mentally) based on his amazing personality. In

    The idea that society rejects those that are different and that the Creature in Frankenstein is rejected because he is different is supported by many literary critics. Chris Bond writes that “The consistent complaint of the monster in his narrative is thus that he is excluded from receiving any human affection, and is, instead, in receipt only of human aggression.” Bond says that it is impossible for the Creature to become active in society because he is unlike humans. The notion that the Creature is more “sinn'd against than sinning” exists until the final page in the novel (Bond). Literary critic Brian Aldiss also comments that the creature is “disowned by its creator” and “shunned against mankind.”…

    According to Ted Polhemus in “Appearance Equals Identity” the way that appearance is perceived determines a social tactic in which we choose to approach a person. Polhemus observed that giving verbal labels has not worked in the past. Physical appearances were once an easy way to identify a person, but now a slight distinction in one's appearance is enough to identify someone. That has not worked because of a large variety of differences that people face. While appearances provide a sense of expression and character, not everyone has the same views.…
