According to society, in order for a woman to be accepted and valued she must follow what she is told to do. Every woman is pressured by society to follow certain rules in order to not be discriminated by others. Women follow rules in order to fit into society and to make other people happy, even though they may not agree with what they are told to do. For instance, I have noticed that every time…

As a man, I know that men are just as “weak” or “fragile” as women, but I don’t think that I’ve ever heard a man admit that. I also know that statement alone, if it were somehow to be broadcasted, would draw tremendous criticism, and probably even more hatred and disgust, from many other males. But, it’s nevertheless true. However, that isn’t what we, as citizens of the United States, are taught. From early on, we have had the narrative of rugged and fearless men who make tremendous sacrifices…

but it involves the idea of what people in society hold important. Hammurabi’s code is an example of this idea. It provides information that if a man knocks out a tooth of another man, he must pay the loss for that tooth. Now, why is this important? This example demonstrates that the action is part of the culture in Babylonia during that time. A man was to compensate for what they did wrong (like knocking out a tooth).
