Bitch

Clicking, that's all I could hear. I was shaking so violently that the headboard was bouncing off of the wall. Blood, that's all I could see. A pool of thick crimson liquid curled around the legs of the bed. Sufficating them and forcing them to know what happened. Little dots littered the end of the bed, I couldn't take my eyes away. Regret, that's all I could feel. What I had just done will haunt me for the rest of my life. 20 MINUTES EARLIER "Hello Avia, it's nice to see you again." The voice…

“You know nothin’, filth,” the old man said threateningly. He looked at the young woman with the air of vicious hatred. "If my son is where you say he is, it is all your fault. You’re good for nothin’. Now get away from my face, you, mindless bitch!" Flabbergasted and hurt, Curley’s wife recoiled from these words as if the old man slapped her in the face. Her lips parted as if she was going to give the old hog a suitable response, but the words never came out. She bit the bitter words back…

Messengers are always conveying the messages, never making the originals. It is a humbling position. We know that Hermes is the messenger of the gods and that he is a man. However, in the Iliad, all the messages are conveyed by Iris, a woman. "Away, Iris! / Quick as you can to the grand sea lord Poseidon. / Go, give him my message, start to finish-- / and see that every word of it rings exactly so" (15.198-192). This quote shows the typical attitude towards women in the Iliad. Zeus is giving…

expecting women to have sex with them whenever they want. As a college student, I have seen countless times, a guy trying to get a girl to come home with him and when the girl refuses he starts to curse her out and call her a slut and a whore and a bitch. There is a disgusting double standard in this country and it gets to the point where women are unable to win anything because no matter what they do they are not good enough. If she wants to have sex she is a slut, if she wants to abstain she…

Humans and dogs have been living side by side for over 14, 000 years (Prestrude and O’Shea, 1996; Riddle, 1987). Throughout the years dogs have served as hunters, guards, herders, medical subjects, companions and guides for humans. Dog selection for a particular task is often based on pairing the task to the breed, attempting to choose one with the appropriate physical, personality, and psychological attributes (Weiss and Greenberg, 1997) (e.g. Jack Russell Terriers’ high stamina and high energy…

If a man is aggressive, he is said to be forceful, determined and a go getter, sometimes even threatening or violent. On the other hand, when a woman is aggressive, she is a bitch, domineering and unfeminine (Knapp, 2015). When it comes to women and their children, if she is “aggressive” in their care, she is viewed as “over-protective” or “smothering.” What is interesting is Google’s third definition “forceful and sometimes…

With America’s economy hundreds of thousands lose their job, losing the money they use to put a roof over their head, and food on the table (Issues & Controversies). While working at the Joseph House Food Bank, I…

Although women are a big part of society now, women were not treated the same way in the past. In the 1930’s, women were discriminated against and treated differently than men. They had no voting rights, were not represented equally in the workplace to their male counterparts, and were sexualized and treated like objects. In the book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, this is depicted in many ways, such as not giving Curley’s wife a distinctive name, male characters viewing women as sexual…
