    During the time of Jane Austen and Shakespeare, women were judged by the many different things that they did or didn’t do. One of the biggest things that came into play when determining the purity of a girl were her sexual relationships and if she was a promiscuous woman or not. In Much Ado about Nothing and Pride and Prejudice, we see that the promiscuity of male characters is treated differently and is seen as socially acceptable. Society has set and shaped standards causing women to have their own type of cultural rules to follow based off of their sexual impurity. When dealing with the same issue concerning men, it’s treated in a different way due to the fact that men had more power and received anything they would demand.…

    Labels have been around for centuries to place people in certain categories that were either permanent or temporary. Back in the medieval time period everyone had a status that they couldn't change like knight, peasants, or queen. As time progressed these labels disappeared and changed to more appropriate uses such as medical, psychology, and etc. When used within these environments I find it appropriate to use labeling because if we ignore the issue it will continue to get worse or never improve. The time when labeling is inappropriate is if it is being forced upon an individual through society, medically, or through the media.…

    Would you rather almost die and yet come out alive as a changed person with a hopeful beginning, or go through a short trip to maturity with no hope?
